Anxiety remains high as i still have intermittent chest pain, fatigue and shortness of breath when walking around the block. I’m a 47 yr old man in decent shape, non smoker, eat relatively healthy and exercise a couple times a week. I also just got over a bad sinus cough for 3 weeks that has had me sedentary for that time. Family history is moderate risk as my mom has a mild heart attack at 75 and recovered well, no stent or anything required.
Now that I am on the Prilosec, I am having shortness of breath, chest tightness, dizziness, and malaise. Is this serious? If I have H. Pylori, I want to fix that problem, but am worried that the respiratory involvement and chest pain/tightness might turn into something serious. Zantac has fewer symptoms, and the chest pain is less severe. Will it be effective if I take that with the abx, instead of the PPI?
That's my shortness of breath and dizziness, who led me to go see a cardiologist, my family practician kept telling me, its your nerves, I had a treadmill test with cardiolite done last Thursday, who came back abnormal. now my symptoms are worst with excertion, well really only with excertion..
I would have checked, I really believed that some Doctors, are less agressive with women than men when it comes to treatments and tests.
I have read conflicting information on whether GERD can actually cause shortness of breath. I'm 38, male, smoker, placed on Prilosec last week by my GP. Since I began taking the Prilosec (20mgs per day), I've had several episodes of disturbing shortness of breath...they happen at different times of the day and aren't associated with any physical exertion. I wasn't actually choking or gasping for air, but my chest definitely tightened and every breath felt very shallow.
Hi, for the past 9 days I have had constant shortness of breath. It started with a dry cough, tightness in the chest and shortness of breath but now it's pretty much just the shortness of breath. I also am constantly burping and I feel as if I have a lump stuck in my throat. I have had a chest x-ray, ekg, blood tests and a CT angiogram of my chest done. Everything came out normal.
It is now the day after and i still have a tightness in my chest and when i walk i become slightly dizzy, have a shortness of breath and at times nauseous.
I am waiting on a referral to see a specialist in the weeks to come, has anyone experienced this and would you be able to give me some insight or put me at ease? i feel as though somthing tragic might happen and am very worried.
thank you.
On 2016, I went back to live with my mom at a condo in the beach and had extreme episodes of tightness in my chest, sighing and not getting a breath in despite multiple attempts including a sore back and lungs. Upon going to the ER, oxygen was normal, X- rays normal, the one thing the Dr. noticed was a lot of mucus running down my throat.
For some their only symptom is a dry cough. What other symptoms do you have outside of shortness of breath? Most people with lung issues often have a cough, chest tightness, and wheezing is certainly common. If you question your asthma diagnosis, then did you did a "methacholine" challenge test? If you tested positive for this one, you have definitely asthma..
I have been dealing with anxiety for 1.5 years. I am now off all meds. I still struggle with chest tightness and shortness of breath daily. It's an up and down thing but pretty constant. Does anyone else have that constant anxiety symtom?
I’m 15, male and have been experiencing shortness of breath for some time now. Recently, I’ve also been experiencing chest tightness and muscle ache in my upper body(might be due to vigorous exercise during my Physical Education class). The shortness of breath is most apparent when I’m lying down flat or leaning while sitting. Should I be concerned? It’s 12.13 AM right now so I’m looking for a sign before I alert them.
t even sit without getting the shortness of breath. I also have tightness from below the sternum to the belly button. Laparoscopy was done with one incision done below the sternum and one in the belly button. I have no previous health issues and don't suffer any anxiety. Healthy as a horse until now. I have an appointment to see a respirologist on March 3 to do a battery tests and then see the pulmonologist on March 4.
HI there, so sorry you are going through all these horrible symptoms, the doctors seem to think that anti depressants can cure nearly everything,( if they cant find a cause)and if you wer'nt depressed before you end up with it after thte medication. Think you may have to ask to see a specalist as 4 years is a long time to have this trouble. Have you thought about hypnotherapy to mabey relax you ,until you can get to a medical specalist, sorry cant be of more help.
On January 18th, I experienced a tight chest during a family dinner that caused me to leave early. I took 1.5MG of Ativan after about 1.5 hours of this tight chest and shortness of breath. This seemed to be classic symptoms of a panic attach, which I have never experienced in my life. There was no obvious triggers as the family dinner was pleasant.
The 19th I experienced no breathing problems at all. The 20th I had shortness of breath that came and went.
breathlessness, shortness of breath, chest pain and tightness, heart palpitations (fluttering, pounding, irregular heartbeat), dizziness, fainting spells and tremors mainly in my hands.
I can't even go up the stairs normally, or even run 5-10 metres to catch the bus, I feel like my lungs are collapsed and can't breath, I have really bad chest pains and heart palpitations.
