Brief Answer:
Most likely due to anxiety.

Detailed Answer:
Hi

Thank you for asking HCM.

I have gone through your query. Your problem can be most likely due to anxiety. If your ECG ( electrocardiogram) and treadmill test is normal then there is nothing to worry about heart.
Doing breathing exercises for stress relaxation will be helpful. Sit relaxed and take deep breaths. Repeat this a couple of times daily.
If that is not helping then a short course of anxiolytics like alprazolam will be helpful. If this is also not helping then low dose of betablocker like metaprolol can be taken.

Let me know if anything not clear.
I am happy to help you.
Thanks.
