Panic Disorder

Hi I've been on Zoloft for about 40 days now and seems to helped
me a lot better than before. I was diagnosed with SVT and been taking atenolol 25mg and cardizem 100mg for about 6 mos. now and without the zoloft I've suffered for numerous Panic attacks with some physical symtoms (symptoms) such as shortness of breath, choking sensation, tremor and fear of dying. I asked my doctor that atenolol and cardizem doesn't help me much it does relax and slow my heart rate but it doesn't help me while driving on the freeway (i'm afraid of getting into huge crowd such as traffic, grocery store or some other places that trigger my heart rate to become fast heartrate or irregular heartbeat). And now I'm on it (zoloft) I feel like I'm back again to my normal life, but my question is does atenolol and cardizem will do harm to my heart
while taking zoloft? because I don't want to stop atenolol or either the cardizem while on zoloft since i never feel any symptoms at all. So should I worry about being on 3 medicines daily? How do you response on this as a long term? Is it true that Panic Disorder can cause arryhthmias? I'm 24 years old male and very worried about having any type of arryhthmias. Pls. respond on my questions and I really appreciate it so much. Thank you.
