Hello,

Sudden onset of these symptoms should always be evaluated for heart diseases. So get done ECG, 2d echo and stress test (trade mill test). If all these are normal then no need to worry about heart diseases. Sometimes acute stress and anxiety can also cause similar symptoms. So consult a psychiatrist and get done counseling sessions. Try to identify the stressor in your life and start working on its solution. You may need anxiolytic drugs too. Don't worry, you will be alright with all these. Avoid stress and tension, be relax and calm.

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

Regards,
Dr. Kaushal Bhavsar
