Thanks for your question in HCM.
In my opinion you should get done ECG first to rule out cardiac cause.
If this is normal than get done chest x ray to rule out pulmonary cause.
If this is also normal than your chest pain may be due to anxiety only.
So avoid stress , anxiety and tension.
Be relax and calm.
Consult psychiatrist for management of anxiety.
You may need anxiolytics and counselling sessions.
