Hi
Oral hypoglycemic agents do not usually have such side effects and your chest pain during exertion coupled with your diabetic history calls for a cardio checkup.
Diabetic/hypertensive patients are prone to cardiovascular diseases in the future so I recommend you to visit a cardiologist and get the routine tests done.
Hope this helps.
