See a doctor: New shortness of breath with mild exertion and awakening with rapid pulse are not normal and need evaluation. Possibilities include anemia, heart failure, heart rhythm disturbance. Please see a doctor.

A concern: Should see a Dr. and get evaluated, with a potential stress test to measure and check your heart, etc.
