Brief Answer:
Thank you for posting your query.
Detailed Answer:
What I can make out is that you are very anxious about your health. You see, anxiety itself can manifest physically like jaw pain , increased heart rate , chest tightness , cold feeling , sweating. I would suggest you not to panic.
Practice consciously breathing in and out for 5 minutes a day. This will help you calm down and reduce your anxiety.
About the Xray ,the Perihilar bronchial wall thickening can be found due to pneumonia , smoking , asthma to name a few. The rest is fine.
Do not worry. I would suggest you to visit a doctor. He/she can examine you and correlate clinically.
