Hello,
welcome to Healthcare Magic.
Your symptoms are related to anxiety and depression. These disorders can manifest not only with psychological symptoms but with a variety of physical symptoms also like: Tingling, numbness, palpitation, muscle spasm (lead to pain in multiple parts of body), chest heaviness, fatgue, tremors (shakiness) etc.
In history you mentioned that, your blood pressure and testosterone level are fine. It is better to have thyroid function test done, as its imbalance may lead to anxiety and depression.
For long term control of anxiety following measures are helpful: relaxation exercise, medicines like SSRIs and non drug treatment like CBT. It is better to get evaluated by psychiatrist and start treatment accordingly.
Wish you good health and all the best.
Regards,
Dr Ashish Kumar Mittal
