Hello,
It could congestive heart disease. I suggest you see your doctor for an ECG, blood tests, chest X-ray, and possibly a referral to a cardiologist for an echo.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
Regards,
Dr Anders Mark Christensen, General Surgeon
