Welcome to HCM. Your doctor is correct,most likely it is due to muscular pain. You have to take nsaid with muscle relaxant. Intra muscular nsaid will be more helpful. b12,calcium supplement will be helpful. Also go for blood pressure measurement,ecg and echo under guidance of your physician to rule out any cardiac involvement. Keep in touch with your doctor.
