Hi thank you for asking in HCM.
According to history the second step is to rule out lung problems and better to do:
Chest X ray
Spirometry
If they come negative so your concerns go for a chostochondritis,or a myositis.
CPK blood test for the last one
And then after having the results you should see a rheumatologist specialist for further work up.
Thank you
