Needs more tests: On the basis of your symptoms it seems that you could have some kind of heart irregularly or even a lung problem like asthma. However the biggest cause is some kind of stress or anxiety. Please go and see family doctor. He can perform some tests to make sure your heart and lungs are the cause or not. He can then treat you with proper medicine or send you to a specialist for further treatment

See cardiologist : If you have never been seen for cardiac issues then, you should be at least screened by a qualified specialist. Otherwise, your symptoms are consistent with likely panic disorder or some form of post traumatic stress. If you have questions feel free to write to: www.healthtap.com/drsaghafi
