Hi There
I understand your concern, STOP taking BETALOC (if your BP is normal) as its a beta blocker which lowers heart rate so probably its causing you trouble and I would like to assure you that you are young and your EKG as well as ECHOCARDIOGRAPHY both are normal so the possibility of having a heart disease is almost negligible. It's your anxiety that's troubling you. I would also like to advise you to start doing MEDITATION/ YOGA daily as it will help you bring down your anxiety levels very well. Also along with that consult a psychiatrist personally for your options to get rid of anxiety.
I wish you good luck
