With advancing age these problems can be seen normally.

But you should get yourself following investigations to be sure if any cardiac, kidney or liver disease is contributing to it:
1. Hemoglobin.
2. Liver and Kidney function tests.
3. ECG.

Once you have these reports write to me again for interpretation and action if required any.
