Thanks for your question on Healthcare Magic.
I can understand your concern.
Chest tightness, breathing difficulty are commonly seen with heart and lung diseases.
So consult doctor and get done ecg, 2d echo, stress test, chest x and PFT (Pulmonary Function Test).
If all these are normal then no need to worry for heart and lung diseases.
You are also having hair fall. Sometimes thyroid issues can also be the cause.
So get done thyroid function test (TSH, free T3 and T4).
Sometimes undiagnosed stress can also be the cause. So avoid stress and tension, be relax and calm.
Hope I have solved your query. I will be happy to help you further. Wish you good health. Thanks.
