Hello!

Welcome and thank you for asking on HCM!

I understand your concern and would explain that your symptoms may be related to dehydration (low water intake and increased sweating related to the hot weather and physical activity).

A chronic anemia and other metabolic disorders (adrenal gland insufficiency, thyroid dysfunction, orthostatic intolerance) could also cause this clinical situation.

I recommend consulting with your GP for a careful physical examination, a resting ECG and some blood lab tests :

-complete blood count (chronic anemia)
-PCR, sedimentation rate (inflammation)
-fasting glucose
-blood electrolytes
-kidney and liver function tests
-thyroid hormone levels
-cortisol plasma levels.

A head up tilt test is necessary to exclude possible orthostatic hypotension.

Meanwhile, I recommend you to take plenty of water, avoid working in hot places and straining physical activity.

Hope to have been helpful!

Best wishes!

Dr. Iliri
