Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
I recommend you to visit a cardiologyst and do an ECG and a cardiac Sonography to be sure if there is any cardiac problem. A 24h ecg holter Monitoring might be needed. Only after seeing cardiac health and be sure that things are good than this may be an anxiety disorder probably because of the age.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
