Brief Answer:
Immediately get done ecg and 2d echo.

Detailed Answer:
Thanks for your question on Health Care Magic.
I can understand your concern.
By your history and description, in my opinion, you should immediately consult cardiologist and get done
1. Clinical examination and monitoring of blood pressure and pulse.
2. Ecg
3. 2d echo.
All these are needed to rule out cardiac cause because your all complains are mostly cardiac.
You are also having diabetes and hypertension, so possibility of cardiac disease is high.
So consult cardiologist and discuss all these.
Hope I have solved your query.
I will be happy to help you further.
Wish you good health.
Thanks.
