Dear Friend.
Welcome to HCM. I am Dr Anshul Varshney. I have read your query in detail. I understand your concern.
I think you should attend emergency immediately.
It might be a symptom of coronary artery disease.
You require an urgent ECG and ECHO for evaluation.
If they are normal, the it is good, but exclusion of heart problem is very important.
This is my best advise for you based on available details. If you have any further query please ask me.
Stay Healthy.
