Hello,

All these symptoms you mentioned are a part of anxiety states. These do not necessarily mean that a person is having a heart ailment. However, baseline initial workup is still suggested.

You will get relief with a mind relaxation techniques and daily light exercise. Avoid alcohol, caffeine and tobacco. Adopt sleep early and wake-up early strategy. Propranolol (Inderal) P.O 3 times daily will help. For your gastrointestinal issues, Itopride (Ganaton) P.O once daily 30 mins before breakfast may help.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
