Brief Answer:
Please, do an EKG!
Detailed Answer:
Hi and thanks so much for this query.
I strongly recommend you get an EKG done. This is to rule out any abnormal heart rhythms as they can prove concerning if not diagnosed and well managed. YOu will not need to see a cardiologist at this time, start with your primary care physician and further directives would be made depending on the initial findings.
I wish you well. Feel free to follow up with me if need be. Above all, keep me updated with the report of this EKG.
