I've been experiencing some mild chest pain and discomfort when I breathe. It's a bit concerning, and I'm wondering what could be causing this. Should I be worried about this, or is it something that could resolve on its own? Could it be related to stress, or should I get it checked out immediately?

I'm really worried about some health stuff. I recently took a test that showed mild PAH, and I'm wondering if that's something I need to be concerned about. Ever since I moved to India from Australia, my anxiety has gotten really bad. I've had a pulse of 134 a few times, especially during the lockdown and just yesterday because I was so tense. I'm 33, 4 ft 8 in, and weigh 44 kilos. I eat really healthily, avoiding processed foods and carbs. Should I be worried about these things or am I overthinking it?
Mild pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) can be a cause for concern, but its impact varies depending on the underlying cause and overall health. Elevated heart rates during periods of tension and anxiety are not uncommon and can exacerbate feelings of discomfort. Given your history of anxiety, its important to manage stress effectively and monitor your heart health. Since you have a history of mild PAH and experience significant anxiety, it would be beneficial to discuss this with your cardiologist and possibly a mental health professional. They can help monitor your condition and provide strategies to manage anxiety, which can, in turn, help stabilize your heart rate. Techniques such as mindfulness, cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), or medication might be recommended.
