Dear Welcome to HCM We understand your concern You are having this pain for two years. You should have noticed when and how it is coming and going. I think it is not constant. Pain diminishes when you hold breath. Most probably it is a muscle contraction, but you need to be sure. General government run hospitals are there to help you. They don't charge. Please be sure to consult a government physician,
