Brief Answer:
Get done ECG and 2D echo.

Detailed Answer:
Thanks for your question on 'Ask A Doctor' forum.
I can understand your concern.

In my opinion, you should get at least ECG and 2D echo done to rule out heart diseases.
If both these are normal then no need to worry about heart diseases.

Hope I have solved your query.
I will be happy to help you further.

Wish you good health.
Thanks
