Hello and welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.
I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
The possibility of cardiac arrhythmia is there, most probably psvt or some other arrhythmia. You need evaluation for that, one ECG and holter monitoring will be needed. Depending upon the report, further treatment can be suggested. Also get your hemoglobin tested. Try to avoid activities like driving and other high risk activity till evaluation is complete.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Sagar Makode
