Brief Answer:
Your symptoms are not cardiac related.

Detailed Answer:
Hello!

Welcome and thank you for asking on HCM!

Regarding your concern, I would explain that your symptoms are not related to any cardiac disorders.

Gastro-esophageal reflux or gastritis seems to be the main cause of your symptomatology.

I recommend consulting with your attending physician for a careful physical exam, a chest X-ray study and a fibrogastroscopy to rule in/out possible gastro-esophageal reflux or gastritis.

You should discuss with your doctor on the above tests.

Hope to have been helpful!

Kind regards,

Dr. Iliri
