Hi friend,
Welcome to Health Care Magic

A single examination may not show.
You have to see your doctor again.

You may need more investigations - ECHOcardiogram / ambulatory (Holter) monitoring / Treadmill Exercise EKG / Thyroid function / and so on

Racing of the heart and passing out are indications for thorough investigations. - a treatable cause should not be missed.

Take care
Wishing speedy recovery
God bless
Good luck
