Hi thank you for asking on HCM!
Yes you should continue your medication. It seems to me that you are a bit anxious about the situation and a anxiolitic (xanax ect) and a beta blockers (betaloc 25 mg) would be good medications in this case. The best thing to do is to talk to your cardiologist and also a psychologist consultation.
Best regards.
