Short of breath.: Have you undergone any testing, or were the doctors’ opinions based on just clinical impressions? Have you had a stress test? 2D echocardiogram? Pulmonary function test? Chest X-ray? There are things that can be done to make sure the heart and lungs are OK, and to even entertain other possibilities for your shortness of breath, such as anemia.
