Specializes in Family Medicine

Anxiety states: You most likely are suffering from an anxiety state, which has fixated on the status of your heart. I would strongly urge you to talk this over with your Internist, and ask for a referral to a Psychiatrist to better sort out the etiologies of your somatic based anxiety disorder.
