Out of breath : The collection of symptoms that you describe should be evaluated by a doctor in person. It is unclear but you may need an emergency room visit now.

Need more detail.: Tightness in the chest caused by exertion, emotion etc could be related to the heart. Strongly recommend evaluation by a patient internist or cardiologist to assess your symptoms and order appropriate studies to make a diagnosis. Remember, a detailed history of risk factors is essential in planning further studies.
