im 39, im fairly fit i eat mostly healthy, i dont smoke.

ive done 10 half marathons and a full marathon in last 10 years

recenlty ive been having what ive been told is anxiety im constanlty obessed with my heart i had a panic attack last summer and had lots of tests done echo cardiagram mutliple ecgs and a 5 day holter all came back fine but the only test i didnt have was for angina.

i can do an intensive 10 min workout and do a 2 mile run and sprint uphill at the end and i feel ok.

would i be able to do all this if i had angina.

my dad died at 59 of a heart attack but he was very unfit and smoked alot.

    well the family history should buy you an angiogram bud. i know you're in good shape but athletes can have really bad heart disease while overweight "unhealthy" people can have clean arteries. push for further testing.
