Hi thanks for contacting HCM....

Noted you have chest pain with sweating and some numbness....

Let me know you here two possibility present.......

First it could be ischemic heart disease like angina or myocardial infarction....
ECG and ECHO useful for it...
If present treated accordingly.....

Second it could be by panic attack lead similar presentation which is induced by stress....as you have psychiatric history so suspecting....

You can consult physician for rule out above problem....

As you have hypertension , heart failure like case also be ruled out by ECG or echo.

Take care
