Dear friend,
Welcome to Health Care Magic

There are several possibilities; the most common in this situation is electrolyte disturbance, from HCTZ
See an Internist / get yourself examined / basic investigation may be necessary...
At times, Holter and stress ECG may be in order
Prognosis is generally excellent in such situations…      

Take care     
Wishing all well
God bless
