Hello,
If symptoms persist, it is better to consult a physician and get evaluated. Detailed evaluation including serial ECG is required to rule out cardiac causes.
We have to rule out possibilities like anaemia and thyroid dysfunction.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
