Pounding Heart, ECC, BP, X-ray Normal. Should I Be Concerned?

I keep having my heart pound. ECC, blood pressure , x-ray and blood work find no physical causes. They say it is anxiety. It is still annoying and uncomfortable to be so constantly aware of my Heartbeat . And that causes more anxiety. I am taking either ativan ir Klonipin. Would like to understand why this is happenning.
