HI
Well come to HCM
I really appreciate your concern, if you want to clear the doubt of cardiac event or rule out the ischemic disease you need to get done the basic tests like EKG, ECHO, and angiography of cardiac arteries, without this it can not be ruled out the cardiac disease, second stress could be the reason, low hemoglobin is also one of reason for such symptoms of shortness of breath hope this information helps.
