Pulmonologist 's  Response
Thanks for your question on HCM.
In my opinion you should first rule out cardiac cause by doing ECG. If this is normal than you should consult pulmonologist and get done repeat evaluation of your right sided lesion.
I advice CT Thorax for better evaluation of lung lesion. If lesionis same as previous than no need to worry. But if the lesion is worsening than I advice you to get done bronchoscopy and BAL analysis with biopsy to rule out other cause and proper diagnosis.
So consult pulmonologist and discuss all these.
