Hi Thank you for asking HCM I have gone through your query. You can also take a treadmill ecg to exclude cardiac cause definitely. It can be due GERD and esophagitis.Taking proton pump inhibitors like rabeprazole for long term will be helpful. If that is not helping then consult a gastroenterologist and you might have to undergo fibrogastroduodenoscopy to know the exact cause. Hope this may help you. Let me know if anything not clear. Thanks.
