Hi and welcome to HCM. Thanks for the query.
This is not concerning value of troponine since this is still within normal range.
However, your symptoms may be sign of certain heart arrythmias or hormonal imbalance so you should do heart ultrasound and check thyroid hormones. Anxiety is common cause and always may be the case,but some organic disorders should be ruled out before it is attributed to anxiety.
Wish you good health. Regards
