Psychiatric consultation is advised in health anxiety
Detailed Answer:
Hello thanks for asking from HCM for your health related queries
I can understand your concern. Your all tests are coming in normal ranges every time. Lipid profile, TMT, ECHO and ECG all are normal so we can rule out heart illness easily. You are just 35 years old and this also decreases heart disease risk. It is not common to develop heart illness especially cardiovascular illness at 35 years of age.
You are going for repeat tests again and again and this shows that you have health anxiety or hypochondriasis. Try to reassure yourself again and again. We have interacted about 3.5 months back also. Try to follow the life style modifications I've asked. Visit a psychiatrist for help.
For health anxiety and heart illness phobia medicines like SSRIs especially Sertraline, Escitalopram etc can help. These medicines will help to reduce your anxiety impulses and you will feel better. Don't shy to visit a psychiatrist. A psychiatric consultation will alleviate your fear of illness and you will surely feel better. These medicines will also help you in good sleep.
Visit a psychiatrist for help.
