Hello dear,I understand your concern.In my opinion breathlessness can be due to different reasons like anaemia,heart related or lung related etc.I suggest you to consider
doing a HB to rule out anaemia.Also get an opinion from physician to rule out the heart and lung causes for breathlessness.Dont worry with proper physical examination and necessary investigations cause can be found.And appropriate treatment will give relief.Nothing to worry.Take healthy nutritional diet.
Best regards...Dr.Srilatha
