Hello
Thanks for posting at HCM.
Your symptoms are suggestige of high blood pressure and its subsequent effect on the heart.
BP remains persistently higher called accelerated hypertension so you have to be started on BP medications. If you are already on some BP medications, they can be changed or added.
The chest gurgling sounds can be because of some fluid accumulating in the lungs due to indirect consequences of high blood pressure.
Also since you have got mild chest pain addition to theabove there is a suspicion of heart disease. You should be worked up for heart disease and hypertension.
Please do an ECG, chest X ray, 2D echo and cardiac enzymes. If the above tests show no abnormalities and BP control is acheived, a treadmill test is recommended after 4 days.
Please revert back with the above test results.
Wishing you good health
Regards
