I ve been having mild chest pains lately accompanied by a sore throat. I have a cat and I do keep the cat litter in my room, but a fair distance away from my bed. (not sure if this has anything to do with my condition) Today, I began to have a shortness of breath and dizziness. I m not sure what s wrong, but I m guessing I have a respiratory infection.
Thanks for your question on Chat Doctor. In my opinion you are having main 3 possibilities. 1. Allergen induced bronchitis (cat fur)2. Upper respiratory tract infection (URI)3. Lower Respiratory Tract Infection (LETI)So consult pulmonologist and get done chest x-ray and PFT (Pulmonary Function Test). Chest x-ray is needed to rule out LETI.PFT is needed to rule out bronchitis. If both are normal than it must be URI. So Chat Doctor.
