Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.
I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

I would explain that your symptoms could be related to possible cardiac arrhythmia. A metabolic disorder (thyroid gland dysfunction, chronic anemia, etc.) or a lung disorder can not be excluded either. Coming to this point, I would recommend consulting with your attending physician for a physical exam and some tests: -a resting ECG and a cardiac ultrasound- a chest X ray study and pulmonary function tests- blood electrolytes- complete blood count, PCR, ESR for inflammation- thyroid hormone levels for thyroid gland dysfunction.

Hope I have answered your query.
Let me know if I can assist you further.
