Thanks for your question on HCM.
I can understand your situation and problem.
By your history and description in my opinion you are mostly having GERD (gastroesophageal reflux disease).
Now you are also having difficulty in swallowing.
So we need to rule out esophageal mass lesion.
So consult gastroenterologist and get done upper GI scopy to rule out esophageal mass.
This will also helpful in diagnosis of GERD.
So first diagnose yourself and then start appropriate treatment.
Avoid hot and spicy food.
Avoid large meals, instead take frequent small meals.
Avoid stress and tension.
Start proton pump inhibitors etc are needed for symptomatic relief.
I find this answer helpful
