Hello
Thanks for posting at HCM.
Symptoms of heart blockages are chest pain, tightness in the chest, chest discomfort, breathlessness and pain in the hand.
Crawling sensation in the chest is atypical pain and does not seem from coming from the heart.
However its always wise to get evaluated.
So please go ahead with the stress test which you are scheduled next week.
As of now I don't think there is anything to worry about.
in the meanwhile you can start taking antacids as such feelings can be caused by hyperacidity and gas problems.
wishing you good health
Regards
