The physical trauma of open heart surgery can take a very long time to heal. I've no medical qualifications but I doubt it's the medication. It's either age catching up with you in the context of a physical job, or it's lingering after effects from surgery which hopefully will slowly subside with time.

If I was you I'd raise it with your GP. If for no other reason, you'll then be on your GP's radar screen in case it worsens and you have to go back.

Good luck!
