Thanks for your question on HCM.
I can understand your problem and situation.
By your history and description, possibility of GERD (gastroesophageal reflux disease) is more.
It is due to laxity of gastroesophageal sphincter. Because of this, the acid of the stomach tends to come up in the esophagus and cause the symptoms like central chest pain, upper stomach pain etc.
So avoid stress and tension. Avoid hot and spicy food. Avoid large meals, instead take frequent small meals.
Start Proton pump inhibitors. Go for walk after meals. Avoid alcohol and smoking if you have this habits.
You will be improve by these lifestyle modifications. Hope I have solved your query. I will be happy to help you further. Wish you good health. Thanks.
