Im having really bad chest pains to the left side right under my breast, and also having shortness of breath. It hurts for me to breath in, kinda feels like someone is squeezing my heart. Any idea what could be wrong or how i can get rid of the feeling?
Thanks for your question on Chat Doctor. I can understand your concern. You're all symptoms are suggestive of heart disease (angina, Coronary artery disease - CAD, congestive heart failure - CHF). So consult cardiologist and get done blood pressure monitoring, ECG, 2d echo and stress test. If all these are normal then no need to worry about heart diseases. Sometimes anxiety and panic disorder can also cause similar symptoms. So avoid stress and tension, be relaxed and calm. Don't worry, you will be alright with all these but first rule out heart diseases. Hope I have solved your query. I will be happy to help you further. Wish you good health. Thanks.
