Thank you for posting your query . I can understand your concern.
From what you have posted , it seems you are very anxious about your health. See, anxiety can physically manifest as shortness of breath , sweating , tremors of hands and feet , stomach ache and increased Heart rate and palpitations.
Do not worry much.
I would suggest you to get an Electrocardiogram (ECG) done to rule out any cardiac rhythm disturbances and let me know.
Have a nice day.
