So, MayMay, I take it you haven't as yet taken the advice of all of us who have been posting to these same questions for months now.
You need to see a doctor. There just simply is no other answer for you.
I know I am sounding harsh, but not until you get checked out will you be able to put these fears to rest. And I know that therapy has been recommended to help you deal with your health anxiety.
We can keep offering you our support and our opinions, but if you REALLY want to get well, you MUST see your doctor.
As to your questions.........yes, it is "normal" to feel like you don't care when you're depressed and yes, I believe you have anxiety issues. As remar stated, these conditons often travel in "packs," so it's very common to have both issues at the same time.
And both issues can be helped by a visit to your doctor!
PLEASE SEE YOUR DOCTOR!
Peace

Absolutely, it sounds like depression as well as anxiety. These two go together most of the time.
Heart palps , feeling hot and dizzy are symptoms of anxiety.
Are you taking anything for your anxiety? You need to talk to your Dr about the depression also.
I know it's hard to eat for some of us when we have severe anxiety but you need to force yourself to. Even if it's eating a little through out the day. That's what I do. I can not sit down and eat a big meal so I eat several things through out the day. You might want to get some Ensure drinks to have have when you just can't eat. Take care. Remar
