Being 42, you should think about having a regular annual checkup and/or physical. Make your situation known to your personal doctor, and they'll be better at letting you know what's going on. You could possibly be over-exerting yourself during your workouts, or work out too often which puts added stress on your heart, causing it to work much harder. But contact your personal doctor. For your sake and your loved ones.
