Im 17 with cardiac anxiety, meaning im scared of having heart disease or heart failure, i now suddenly have developed really high hr but i have gotten an ekg and it was normal, how can i stop worrying, is heart disease common at my age?

Anxiety : At the age of 17 heart issues are very rare. I suggest seeing your primary care doctor. Consider that your focus of anxiety is based on your heart when the facts include that 17 year old don't have heart issues very often. Who ns your close circle of relationships who had heart disease? Do you think that affects your concerns? See a primary care doctor. Best of health.
