The symptoms of anxiety and vocal cord dysfunction may be present. If you have cough, chest pain or fever, please see urgent care or your PCP. Reduce stress and if the shortness of breath does not improve, please follow up with your PCP. Watch for signs of cough, fever and malaise. Other considerations include post COVID cardiac conditions. Did you have COVID 19 infection in the past?
