I thank you all for your good wishes. Thank God all test were OK. Holter Monitor recorded ECG for 25 hours. During that time I did my normal walk and Gym. Pulse rate was between low of 55 during sleeo and high of 121 at 1:42 PM. I asked cardiologist there seems to something wrong because I went through physical stress during exercise between 6 to 7 PM. That is when pulse should have been highest. He said that it is higher at meal time. I am now back to my normal routine.
About 6 months ago I went through surgery for hernia. A mesh about 10×6 cm was put in. What care is needed to prevent any damage. I am avoiding stress on my stomach.

Thanks to all who came up with their advice. Yes, I visited the cardiologist. He has asked for 3 tests, 3D Echo, Doppler and Holters Monitoring. I have got appointments for all the three tests for next week.
The doctor added a non hypertention medicine. It is to keeo acitity down and prevent reflux. Does it have any connection.
