Hi, my heart rate is 105 bpm at rest, i also have a cough like wheeze and i find it hard to catch my breath periodically though the day but especially in the morning. im finding this pretty scarey. Btw my doctor recently gave me pholcodine to help the cough but it bought me out in a rash , that was 2 days ago, rash as gone down but still a bit itchy. Hope you can give me some answers and advice please.
