I'm really puzzled because my ECG and echo results came back normal according to the doctor, but I'm still experiencing chest pain and sometimes pain in my left hand. I've attached my ECG report here. What might be causing these symptoms if all the tests show nothing wrong?

View allI'm really confused about why I'm experiencing heart palpitations even when I'm not feeling anxious. For the past year, I've been dealing with anxiety and have been taking etizolem and propranolol for a few months to help with it. But if I miss just one dose of etizolem, my heart starts racing and feels very uncomfortable. It's really scary. Is it possible that these palpitations are more related to anxiety, like my psychiatrist suggests, or could it be something else, maybe related to my heart? I haven't had panic attacks or any other anxiety symptoms recently, just the palpitations when I skip the medication.
It sounds like you are experiencing symptoms of anxiety and possibly withdrawal effects from Etizolam. Etizolam is a benzodiazepine derivative used to treat anxiety disorders, and sudden discontinuation can lead to withdrawal symptoms such as increased heart rate or palpitations. Propranolol is a beta-blocker that helps with heart palpitations and can be used in combination with Etizolam. To address your concerns, it is important to follow your psychiatrist's advice regarding the management of anxiety and heart palpitations. It is possible that the palpitations you are experiencing when skipping Etizolam are due to withdrawal effects, as benzodiazepines should be tapered off gradually under medical supervision to avoid such symptoms. In addition to continuing your current medications, you may also benefit from therapy or counseling to address underlying anxiety issues. It is important to discuss any concerns or new symptoms with your psychiatrist for proper management.

I'm a bit worried after my full body health check-up. The ECG and stress ECG turned out normal, but the 2D Echo showed I have grade 1 diastolic dysfunction. And there were some issues in my chest X-ray too. I also have diabetes and I'm on medication for that. Plus, I've got a hernia operation coming up next week. Is this something I should be seriously concerned about? Should I go see a cardiologist and a pulmonologist?
first consult cardiologist.
