Hello!

Welcome and thank you for asking on HCM!

I understand your concern and would explain that your symptoms could be related to gastro-esophageal reflux or gastritis.

Anxiety can mimic this clinical scenario too.

Coming to this point, I would recommend taking a PPI (omeprazole, pantoprazole, etc.) before sleep. If your symptoms improve, I would recommend performing a fibrogastroscopy.

If this does not help, you should consider anxiety as the main cause of your complaints. Periodical check ups (chest X ray study, resting ECG, blood lab tests) are necessary to be sure that nothing wrong is going on.

Hope to have been helpful to you!

Wishing good health,

Dr. Iliri
