What Causes Shortness Of Breath And Chest Pains?
I have been experiencing shortness of breath for the last four days, but feel no chest pains. On Sunday morning I started bleeding when I go to the bathroom. I feel extremely fatigued. I have a doctors apt for Monday morning....But I am worried. I really do not have time to go to the ER because we are planning a funeral for Saturday morning....But will if I need too. Any opinion?
