Hello,
Thanks for the query to H.C.M. Forum.
Since at present your age is 50 years and due to there develops exertion, due to exertion , there may be.
1 Dysponea ( gasping for air) , cause of dysponea may be heart disease or bronchial asthma . Diagnosis can be confirmed by E CG , ECHO . This age group is prone to heart disease so be alert .
2 Anemia , in my so many patient I have noted that due to mild exertion they develops breathlessness in anemia . Diagnosis can be confirmed by examination of hemoglobin level .
3 Decrease in stamina, I have noted in so many cases mild exertion causes breathless just due to lack of stamina .
In my opinion consult a physician and get his opinion regarding heart disease .
Good luck, Dr. HET
