What Causes Severe Chest Pains And Headaches?
Hi, I have been having very bad chest pains for a couple of months now, but over the past week they have been getting very bad. I have also been getting very bad headaches along with the chest pains. Sleeping, breathing, moving, and even talking have been very difficult for me and I am concerned for my health

Hi,
I understand your concern.
Chest pain along with headache are indicating possible cardiovascular or respiratory issues.
Should consult first with lung specialist (pulmonologist) to rule out respiratory problems.
Depending on your age and gender, a good medical history and clinical examination should be carried out.
Respiratory function tests are recommended together with cardiac check up:
- ECG
-Echo cardiogram
- stress test
Hope this helps.
