Dear Aaqib,

Thanks for expressing your concern here!!

From the way you describe your symptoms, it appears more likely that you are having a Panic Disorder or Generalized Anxiety Disorder. These disorders are mainly because of the excess anxiety that is in you. These are conditions that affect your mind more than your heart and can be treated with good medicines. I suggest you consult a psychiatrist who would be able to guide you with the appropriate medication that can bring down your symptoms. The medicines for these conditions are very effective and you will see improvement within a week or two..

Most likely you have a normal heart. You can take an ECG and get it confirmed that the heart is ok.

I hope I answered your question.
