Dear
Welcome to HCM
We understand your concerns

I went through your details. Anxiety is a general term used to describe psycho somatic problems. In your case, your doctor listened to you, examined and investigated. He could not find any problem with your body. Then the left over problem might be stress and anxiety related physical problems. So your doctor opined you are anxious.

Anxiety disorders are a category of mental disorders characterized by feelings of anxiety and fear, where anxiety is a worry about future events and fear is a reaction to current events. These feelings may cause physical symptoms, such as a racing heart and shakiness. There are a number of anxiety disorders: including generalized anxiety disorder, a specific phobia, social anxiety disorder, separation anxiety disorder, agoraphobia, and panic disorder among others. While each has its own characteristics and symptoms, they all include symptoms of anxiety. I suggest you to consult a psychologist for further diagnosis and treatment.
