Shortness of breath and arrhythmia are symptoms of what disease?

Question
Hi doctor,
For the past 20 years I have had occasional arrhythmias and slight difficulty breathing. I went to the general hospital, the doctor told me not to use drugs for autonomic neuropathy. For nearly 2 years now, the condition has gotten worse, the number of arrhythmias is more, such as tachycardia or wrist pulse, skipping a beat and then continuing to beat. I am currently taking the heart drug prolol 2.5 mg orally 1/2v, now the state of skipping beats occurs more often. I discovered that a thyroid patient about this year has not taken medication, is still working normally, driving a car, a porter, etc. Her condition worsens when she is worried. The doctor asked me if shortness of breath, arrhythmia is a symptom of what disease? Ask your doctor for advice. Thank you.
