Thanks for your question on Healthcare Magic.
I can understand your concern.
In my opinion, we should first rule out heart diseases for your symptoms.
So get done ecg, 2d echo and stress test (trade mill test).
If all these are normal then no need to worry for heart diseases.
Stress and anxiety can also cause chest tightness, breathing difficulty, stomach problems etc.
So avoid stress and tension, be relax and calm.
You may also need anxiolytic drugs too.
Don't worry, you will be alright but first rule out heart diseases.
Hope I have solved your query. I will be happy to help you further. Wish you good health. Thanks.
