A member asked:

Chest discomfort, shortness of breath and light headedness that comes and goes for the last few days dit does feel lik it is worsening?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

See your doctor.: Your age makes it unlikely to be heart related. However, this is a clear indication for you to get expert opinion from your doctor. It is not clear whether your symptoms are related to physical activity, stress etc . A detailed history and appropriate testing are crucial for a proper evaluation and further action if needed.
