Frequently asked questions
Answers from the team at Cardiologist London. For personalised advice, book a consultation or call 020 3576 2885.
Can anxiety cause heart symptoms?
Yes. Anxiety can produce palpitations, a racing pulse, chest tightness and breathlessness - symptoms that overlap heavily with heart conditions. That overlap is exactly why unexplained symptoms deserve a proper cardiac assessment rather than assumption in either direction.
How do I know if it's anxiety or my heart?
You often can't reliably tell from symptoms alone. Simple tests - an ECG, ambulatory monitoring and sometimes an echocardiogram - can confirm whether the heart is healthy. A normal result is genuinely reassuring and often improves the anxiety itself.
Does long-term stress or anxiety affect the heart?
Chronic stress is associated with higher blood pressure and less healthy lifestyle patterns, which raise cardiovascular risk over time. Managing it - alongside blood pressure, cholesterol and sleep - is part of good preventive heart care.
