Thanks for your question on HCM.
I can understand your problem and situation.
Yes, you should definitely consult cardiologist and rule out cardiac cause for your chest pain.
Chest pain in night is commonly seen in cardiac causes like angina, early congestive heart failure and myocardial ischemia.
So better to get done
1. ECG
2. 2d echo
To rule out above mentioned possible causes.
If both are negative than no need to worry much about cardiac disease.
You may have anxiety related or muscular pain.
Do don't worry, be relax and calm.
