General & Family Physician,  's  Response
Hello

Thanks for asking a question at HCM

I will be glad to answer for you

Okay, this can be anxiety/part of panic attack, first diagnosis considering the previous history of panic attacks.

Second thing, it can be related to heart, if the symptoms continue get an ECG done to see if everything is normal from the heart point of view


Hope this helps

Best Regards
Dr Chaithanya
