hello, I have gone through your query .Thanks for using HCM.As you have mentioned that you have murmur,it suggests that you some valvular abnormality ,though may be mild as you are asymptomatic.left atrial enlargement may be secondary to mitral valve lesion irregular rhythm may be due to mitral lesion itself or medication.if it disappears then you may conclude that it was drug induced
.I suggest you to get Echocardiogram done to know the cause of murmur and severity of mitral lesion
