HI
Thank for asking to HCM
I really appreciate your concern if you have history of palpitation, fatigue, weakness, after the noon nap, then this could be functional condition and nothing to worry about this, only thing at the most you can do is correct the hypoglycemia this could be a cause of these, looking to your age such functional problem is very likely, hope this information helps you, have nice day.
