Dear your age is 44 and you are diagnosed with hypertension . You have not mentioned are you taking any treatment for that or not.what exactly you want to say about rumbling of heart ...but any chest discomfort in your age group with hypertension should be taken seriously and cause should be find out . ischemic heart disease is can present with chest pain or chest discomfort or just tightness pressure like or uneasiness etc.so with risk groups such as male sex with age more than 40 ,hypertensive, smoker, diabetes obese we have to always rule out any cardiac pathology . So in my opinion you should consult your physician for that because we need detail history and examination after that few investigation such as ecg etc to reach the correct diagnosis . Hope this will help.
