What Causes Difficulty While Breathing Deep And Fatigue?
Hi, Dear Dr. and/ or Nurse: I have a terrible time getting a deep breath, but lungs are healthy, doc says, I have no energy or strength in mainly my back and legs and arms also. I can t say a whole sentence without it difficult to breathe; and can t stand for a very long time and can t hardly lift anymore. I m 46, female, mom to a 3 yr. old and married. What is wrong with me?? I don t even have the strength or breath to take a shower. Thank you for your attention, getting a little worried. Been this way for several months now.

Hello,
The causes of weakness and breathlessness can be due to low hemoglobin, thyroid disorders, cardiac illness. etc. You require a comprehensive evaluation and tests for all these conditions.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
