Hello dear, thanks for your question on HCM.
I can understand your situation and problem.
In my opinion you are having hyperthyroidism mostly.
As your symptoms like more hunger, stomach pain , sweating etc are seen in hyperthyroidism.
So better to get done S.TSH and free T3 and T4.
If all are normal than get done ECG and 2D Echo to rule out cardiac cause.
If these are alsi normal than no need to worry much. As your symptoms are mostly due to anxiety. So avoid stress and tension. Be relax and calm.
I find this answer helpful
