Have you had an EKG? Your symptoms and background are more consistent with Afib or some other heart condition than overtraining. When in Afib HR monitors don't read properly.
I rode with a friend who dealt with Afib for about a year before getting it fixed with ablation. He would occasionally enter Afib during a ride and it would be like a light switch was turned off. He could still ride but at about 50-70% of his normal power. Something to investigate with your doc.
