Hi thank you asking HCM I am Dr.Klerida gastroenterologist. Your symptoms are suggestive of GERD so you need to do upper ednoscopy an d start the treatment with PPI like pantoprazole. But chest pain is indicative of cardiac problems too. so please perform ECG, consult cardiologist to rule our cardiac problems. wishing you all the best. Dr. Klerida
