See a cardiologiest immediately.
Had a recent scare, had an x-ray done (for a nagging rib bruise issue) and it showed a potential "enlargement" of the heart. Dr. Google was telling me I was going to die. Doubly paniced because I had WPW and open heart surgery decades ago to correct it. The panic was...well bad.
Made an appointment with cardiologist had a ultrasound done. Inconclusive.
Then had an MRI scheduled. Cardiologist called and said everything was fine.
But for two months I backed everything way down. Psychologically I couldn't go hard even when the doctor's said I was low risk. It wasn't until I got the clean bill of health that I could go back to not being rate rate obsessed with every flight of stairs.
Only a cardiologiest (or two) can tell you for sure.
