Thanks for your question on HCM.
I can understand your situation and problem.
Vibrating feeling in chest can be due to
1. Arrhythmia
2. Muscle twitching
3. Anxiety.
So we need to rule out arrhythmia first.
So get done
1. ECG
2. 2d echo
3. Holter monitoring (24hour continuous recording of ecg)
If all of the above are normal then no need to worry much for cardiac cause like arrhythmia.
Anxiety can also cause muscle twitching and vibratory sensation in chest.
So avoid stress and tension. Be relax and calm. Don't worry, you will be alright.
