Should I Be Concerned About Chest Tightness And Difficulty In Breathing?
I'm a 23 yr old female in excellent health (gym every day). I feel a tightness in my chest and can hardly breathe. I just took my blood pressure and it's 138/81. I am currently taking synthroid, bactrum, and birth control. i took an excedrin for a headache...do i need to go to my doctor?
Thanks for your question on Healthcare Magic. I can understand your concern. Possibility of stress and anxiety related symptoms is more in your case because you are too young for heart diseases and your blood pressure is normal. So avoid stress and tension, be relax and calm. Consult psychiatrist and get done counselling sessions. Try to identify stressor in your life and start working on it's solution. You may need anxiolytic drugs too. Another possibility of drug induced gastritis. You are taking 2-3 drugs daily. And this can cause gastritis. So take pantoprazole tablet on empty stomach for gastritis. Don't worry, you will be alright. Hope I have solved your query. I will be happy to help you further. Wish you good health. Thanks.
