Cardiologist,  's  Response
Hi friend,
Welcome to Health Care Magic

You need investigations...
Valve malfunction / heart failure are the two prime possibilities...
Coincidental problems like Coronary Artery Disease will also need attention...
You should see your cardiologist...

Take care
Wishing speedy recovery
God bless
Good luck
