Thanks for your question on Chat Doctor. I can understand your concern. In my opinion, we should rule out worsening of atrial fibrillation (AF) and underlying heart condition for your symptoms because both of them can cause similar symptoms. So consult doctor and get done blood pressure monitoring, ECG and 2d echo. If all these are normal then no need to worry about major heart diseases. Sometimes, stress and tension can also cause similar symptoms. So avoid stress and tension, be relaxed and calm. Consult psychiatrist and get done counselling sessions. Try to identify stressor in your life and start working on its solution. You may need anxiolytic Chat Doctor.  Don't worry, you will be alright, but first rule out heart diseases. Hope I have solved your query. I will be happy to help you further. Wish you good health. Thanks.
