Brief Answer:
Get done ecg and 2d echo first.

Detailed Answer:
Thanks for your question on Health Care Magic.
I can understand your concern.
Possibility of stress and anxiety related symptoms is more but better to rule out cardiac diseases first.
So get done ecg and 2d echo to rule out heart diseases.
If both are normal than no need to worry for heart diseases.
Your symptoms are mostly due to stress and tension.
So avoid stress and tension, be relax and calm. Don't worry, you will be alright.
Consult any nearby hospital and get done ecg and 2d echo.
If both are normal than consult psychiatrist and discuss your problem.
Hope I have solved your query.
I will be happy to help you further.
Wish you good health. Thanks.
