Thanks for your question on Chat Doctor. I can understand your concern. Breathing difficulty, chest tightness, chest pressure, sweating especially at night are characteristic symptoms of heart diseases. So better to consult cardiologist and get done blood pressure monitoring, ECG, 2d echo and stress test (trade mill test). He may need coronary angiography if above-mentioned reports are positive for ischemia. Don't worry, he will be alright with appropriate cardiac Chat Doctor.  Hope I have solved your query. I will be happy to help you further. Wishing good health to your husband. Thanks.
