Hello Ma'am
After going through the medical details provided by you I would like to tell you that your symptoms are pointing towards some kind of rhythm abnormality that is happening transiently.
To rule out this its advisable to get an ECG, Echocardiography and HOLTER monitoring done.
Also don't indulge yourself in sternous physical activity.
