Really worried now

I read somewhere on the internet called.*khmer weak heart syndrome* . It says those with palpitations and anxiety are at greater risk of sudden cardiac death . Omg ! Now I cant stop thinking about it!

You are only at risk if you have a weak heart. Please see a Dr if you are concerned. It would be good to get your heart checked anyway though so you have peace of mind.

Ive been checked numerous times . But ive heard that those with these symptoms develop a condition later in life.😖

I’ve learnt to stop googling stuff it doesn’t help, if your times up your time is up the way I look at it now. If you have seen a doctor and had your heart checked and it’s come back fine then it’s ok, if you haven’t just go for a piece of mind like anxiouslady13 said.

Stay off the internet and google

Hi try to believe that that isn't going to happen cause it isn't!. People on this forum have been dealing with anxiety for over 30 or 40yrs or more. Just start deep breathing, going for a calm walk, eat good healthy foods and drink lots of water which if you want add some juice to it so you can drink it up easier. Get lots of rest. I have anxiety and panic attacks but otherwise I'm healthy and so are you, believe me it's hard to believe it cause I'm in the same boat but it's true. I started eating yogurt with 3 kinds of cultures in it to heal our gut cause we have more serotonin in our gut than in our brain so if you have a healthy gut you have a healthy mind. I only started that 3 days ago and I feel a bit calmer already.
