Hello,
I'm sorry to tell you, you could be having heart failure. If you are feeling breathless or any chest discomfort please visit your doctor immediately.
If you were already diagnosed with heart failure before and are developing these symptoms now, your medications will have to be reviewed.
Hope this was helpfull.
