Hello,
I would explain that your symptoms do not seem to be related to a cardiac disorder.
Anxiety seems to mimic this clinical situation. Anyway, I would recommend performing an exercise cardiac stress test just to be sure that everything is OK.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
Regards,
Dr Ilir Sharka, Cardiologist
