Hi I Just Turned 30 I Was Diagnosed With Anxiety

Hi I just turned 30 I was diagnosed with anxiety when i was 19. But over the last couple years espeacially last year i have been feeling very light headed pretty much all the time sometimes more sever than other and i get very shaky and my chest hurts feel like i cant breath easily normally. Im also always tired even when i do get a good amount of sleep and have been eating healthier and do yoga but when i do cardio my heart races sometimes to the point i feel i cant slow it down. I get the flutter feeling in my chest often and just started a medical assistant program and during practicing EKG on each other my EKG came back with arrhythmia. I always just wrote it off as being caused by my anxiety even though it happens when very relaxed. Also, my heart disease heart problems are in my family and diabetes. My dads parents both dies before i was born when he was in his teens early 20's his mom from diabetes and his dad from heart attack. My moms dad died from massive heart attack when she was 16 and her mom died when my mom was 25 from ovarian cancer. My mom had ovarian cancer in her late 20's and had a hysterctomy in early 30s she also suffered from anxiety syptoms in her 30s and they had her wear a heart monitor for lenght time and found she has arrythimia. She has high blood pressure also and she got diagnosed with diabettees at 50 and she has tested my blood sugar at times when i felt faint and very low and now i have my teacher telling me my EKG and pulse show that i have arythmia. Should I be worried and get this checked out or is it all just anxiety? i keep telling my mom it just anxiety thats what i was diagnosed with but she believes i should get checked out now that im getting older and my symptoms are very similar to the ones she had before she was diagnosed.
