Thanks for your question on HCM.
Since your cardiac work up is normal no need to worry much for this tingling sensation in chest.
Other causes like
1. Anemia
2. Thyroid problems
3. Anxiety etc. Can also cause tingling sensation in chest.
So better to get done CBC (Complete Blood Count) to rule out anemia. Get done S.TSH to rule out thyroid related problems.
If both are negative than you are having anxiety mostly. Better to consult psychiatrist and get done counselling sessions. Identity stressor in your life and start working on it.
Be relax and calm. Avoid stress and anxiety.
