Hello,

These symptoms may not be related to anxiety. Your increased heart rate could be due to exertion.

The cardiologist should examine the heart by auscultation and after going through ECG should diagnose the problem related to irregular heartbeat, if any.

Also, you have not provided your age and weight which could indicate an inappropriate body mass index. Ultrasound of heart is to be taken to see the condition of myocardium if everything is alright.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care

Regards,
