Yes, I m a heart patient, and now im having shortness of breath when taking little steps or getting up or showing, I have a pacemaker and i m not sure if I should go to the hospital. I was there is february with congestive heart failure so I m not sure what is going on now.
Hello and welcome to ask a doctor service. I reviewed your query and here is my answer. As you said you have a pacemaker and congestive heart failure. So getting shortness of breath of this severity is not a good sign. It means either you are not taking your medication properly or your medication are no more sufficient for your congestive heart failure or there may be lungs problem. You need to go to a hospital and see a cardiologist for this. Hope I answered your question.  Feel free to ask more if you need further assistance.  Thanks.
