Detailed Answer:
Hello!
Welcome to Ask a Doctor service!
I passed carefully through your question and would explain that your symptoms could be related to a possible cardiac arrhythmia.
For this reason, it is necessary consulting with your attending physician for a physical exam and some tests:
- a resting ECG and a cardiac ultrasound
- thyroid hormone levels for thyroid gland dysfunction
- blood electrolytes for possible imbalance
- complete blood count for anemia.
An ambulatory 24-48 hours ECG monitoring would help examine your heart rhythm trends for a prolonged time and exclude possible cardiac arrhythmia.
You should discuss with your doctor on the above tests.
I remain at your disposal for any further questions whenever you need!
Kind regards,
Dr. Ilir Sharka, Cardiologist
