So did the last of my "anxiety testing" ultrasound on my heart and event monitor doctors arnt concerned, are those enough tests to know hearts fine.

For the most part : A normal heart ultrasound (echocardiogram) and a normal event monitor in a 21-year-old are good indications the heart is normal. There are more advanced tests that can be done (e.g. Tee, ep study, angio), but no need for these if being done solely for "anxiety testing".
