HI Alba,

First of all welcome to the forum, what you discribe are classic signs of panic and anxiety. Have a look through the first steps link, you should find that helpful.

Hugs to you

Hi alba,the doctor knows if there is a problem with your heart pet.Your heart rate will go up because you are so stressed.Anxiety will cause you to feel dizzy and light headed.You have all the symptoms of anxiety and worrying makes its all worse.There is a light at the end of the tunnel,and we will get to it,when, nobody knows.we are all here for you.;)
