Have had a sudden chest pain around the sternum. Have had it for a week now. Random shortness of breaths and lightheadedness. It s not constant and doesn t last more than a couple mins. So.e parts of the day I m fine, then other it just hits. I have an appointment on Monday, i was just wondering if anyone would have an a idea before I go in and ask?
Thanks for your question on Chat Doctor. I can understand your situation and problem. By your history and description, possibility of bronchitis is more. So ask your doctor about possibility of bronchitis. Get done clinical examination of respiratory system, chest x-ray and PFT (Pulmonary Function Test). PFT is needed to rule out bronchitis. If all of these are normal than no need to worry much. Sometimes stress and anxiety can cause similar symptoms. So avoid stress and tension. Be relax and calm. Don't worry, you will be alright. Hope I have solved your query. I will be happy to help you further. Wish you good health. Thanks.
