Your symptoms suggest possibility of severe heart problem which needs immediate attention. I would advise you to go to ER, get yourself fully investigated followed by experience advise to help you out. You should take rest, avoid exertion & see heart specialist the earliest for early diagnosis & specific treatment helps.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
