    Hey johnnie,if youv been tested by doctors and your heart is all good,then id defo say your suffering anxiety attacks.it seems as tho smoking the weed has triggered it,do you feel guilty or ashamed that you tried it?.Go back to the doctors and tell him that the anxiety is effecting your everyday life.Did you mix alcohol and weed as thats never a good combination.good luck hope you get the help you need.

      Each persons tolerance of weed is different just coz ur friends ok doesnt mean you are,sounds like you have the same as me "floating anxiety",it means you focus on your health,and because of this we notice every single twinge or raced heartbeat etc,book an app with your doc asap n tel him your symptoms before you drive yourself mad,try to accept these feeling as part of your anxiety eg wen your heart races say its jus anxiety again,until you get to see your doc,these are known as intrusive thoughts.
