Are These Asthma Symptoms - Tightness In Chest, Mucous In Throat, Dry Cough, Pain In The Shoulder Blades, Backpain, Weakness In Arms?
I just recently about three weeks ago started getting tightness in my chest, mucus in my throat, cough with hardly anything coming up and the worst back pain in the middle of my shoulder blades along with weakness in my arms. I am a heart patient, but never had this severe pain in my back and in my arms. It lasts for about 3 or 4 longgggggggg minutes and then I am exhausted. My brother nearly died from childhood asthma so it runs in my family. I now have a hard time doing what I always do because I am scared it will happen. It's quite frightening! Is this asthma?

HI
Thank for asking to HCM
I really appreciate your concern, this are not the signs of the asthma, hunger for air, wheezing shortness of breath, these are the sings of asthma, your signs indicates the bronchitis, and the underlying heart problem which need to be differentiated, better have word with your doctor, have nice day.
