A member asked:
What could cause shortness if breath ? cardiac cause ? what tests are required.
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Shortness of Breath: Is the shortness of breath at rest or exertion? The most common causes are poor condition and anxiety. Certainly other more serious causes would be pulmonary (lung) or cardiac. Have it checked out if it is causing you anxiety or discomfort.
