Cardiologist 's  Response
Hi,
This is Dr Sameer, cardiologist.
Yes you should be evaluated further as breathlessness on exertion & chest pain could be a sign of heart disease.
I will recommend for a test called Stress Echo which is a very good test to rule out any cardiac disease.
Thanks & take care
