See your doc: It is vital to have a thorough evaluation by your primary care physician to rule out any problems in general and specifically with your heart. Only then is it appropriate to be considering the cause to be only anxiety. Of course, that too is an illness, of the brain. Significant amxiety can be managed with psychotherapeutic and medication treatmemt. ★★☆★☆talk with your doctor.
