Hi
It seems to be stress or anxiety manifesting in this way. Last investigation left is ECHO. It would be good if you are able to get it done . it can rule out any heart disease if its there.
Then we can focus on Relaxation therapies which you can do now also.
Do Yoga , Exercise Avoid tea coffee smoking or caffeine.
Good Luck.
