What Causes Panic Attack Post Exercising?
Hi i suffer from severe anxiety im 24 i recently had a panic attack after doing heavy work out at the gym. The doctor did a ecg scan it came normal, they also scanned my heart with an ultra sound it came back normal. However he did a blood test and said my troponin was 22 then he did a second blood test later on and said it was 20. I was really worried I had a heart attack but the dr said it was not a heart attack and its from my anxiety and the stress on my heart from the gym is this real or am i having heart attacks ?

HI
Well come to HCM
I really appreciate your concern, if the EKG is normal one and exercise induced dyspnea is suspected the better to get done the stress test, if turn normal too then it must be the anxiety that causes the symptoms, and then try to come out of this, hope this information helps.
