Thanks for your question on Healthcare Magic.
I can understand your concern.
In my opinion, you should first get done ecg, 2d echo and stress test (trade mill test) to rule out heart diseases.
If all these are normal then no need to worry for heart diseases.
Sometimes stress and anxiety can also cause similar symptoms.
So consult psychiatrist and get done counselling sessions.
Try to identify stressor in your life and start working on its solution.
You may need anxiolytic drugs too.
Don't worry, you will be alright with all these.
Hope I have solved your query. I will be happy to help you further. Wish you good health. Thanks.
