Dyspnea: Without other history we can't make a differential diagnosis. Since you're experiencing shortness of breath with exertion and not at rest, possibilities include anemia,lung or heart pathology. A physician would have to take a thorough history, perform a physical examination and order appropriate tests in order to make a diagnosis and advise you. If your dyspnea is very severe,go to hospita ER.
