Thanks for your question on HCM.
By your symptoms it seems you are having breathlessness on minimal exertion.
So we need to rule out cardiac cause first.
Get done ECG and 2D Echo to rule out this.
If both are normal than no need to worry much for cardiac cause.
I think you are having anxiety related symptoms.
So better to consult psychiatrist and get done counselling sessions. Try to identify stressor in your life and start working on it.
You may need anxiolytic drugs too.
So better to avoid stress and tension.
Be relax and calm.
