Hello!
Thank you for asking on HCM!
I carefully read your question and would explain that your symptoms could be related to indigestion and increased gas.
I would recommend consulting with your attending physician for a careful physical exam and some tests:
- a chest X ray study
- an abdominal ultrasound
- some blood lab tests (complete blood count, kidney and liver function tests, fasting glucose, blood electrolytes).
Hope to have been helpful!
