Thanks for your question on Health Care Magic.
I can understand your concern.
In my opinion, your symptoms are mostly due to anxiety and stress.
But better to rule out heart and Pulmonary causes because you are having chest pain and breathlessness.
So get done ecg and 2d echo to rule out heart diseases.
Get done chest x ray and PFT to help rule out Pulmonary causes.
If all these are normal then no need to worry much. You may have stress and anxiety.
So better to consult psychiatrist and get done counselling sessions.
Avoid stress and tension, be relax and calm.
Hope I have solved your query. I will be happy to help you further. Wish you good health. Thanks.
