Detailed Answer:
Hello!
Welcome and thank you for asking on HCM!
I understand your concern and would explain that your symptoms seem to be related to anxiety.
You should know that anxiety can mimic all these symptoms ( palpitations, body shaking, dizziness, shortness of breath , etc.).
I would recommend trying Xanax 0.25 mg during these episodes. The relief of the symptoms would indicate pure anxiety.
Anyway, if these symptoms persist, I would recommend performing further tests to exclude some other possible causes:
- an ambulatory 24-48 hours ECG monitoring to examine your heart rhythm trends during the day and exclude cardiac arrhythmia
- complete blood count for anemia
- thyroid hormone levels for possible dysfunction
- blood electrolytes for possible imbalance.
If all these tests result normal, you should consider anxiety as the main cause of your troubles.
Hope to have been helpful!
Kind regards,
