There can be so many reason fro this other then heart ,
these include, low HB, metabolic causes like thyroid ,lung problem, kidney problem, depression, obstructive sleep apnea , stress ,so these would need a detailed evaluation , i would advise you should see an internalist who would assess you in detail and would dig out the cause.
