Thanks for your question on HCM.
In my opinion it seems muscular pain mostly.
But we need to rule out cardiac cause first for chest pain as MDMA is sympathomimetic drug and can damage heart. So get done ECG to rule out cardiac disease.
If it is normal than no need to worry much.
Tell her to follow these steps for better symptomatic relief in muscular pain.
1. Avoid heavy weight lifting and strenuous exercise.
2. Avoid bad postures in sleep.
3. Take good painkiller and muscle relaxant.
4. Apply warm water pad on affected site.
5. Avoid habit of MDMA.
