Thanks for your question on Healthcare Magic.
I can understand your concern.
In my opinion, we should definitely rule out heart diseases first because chest pains, shortness of breath on minimal exertion and arm pain are commonly seen with heart diseases.
So take him to hospital and get done blood pressure monitoring, ecg, 2d echo and stress test (trade mill test).
He may need antihypertensive and other cardiac supportive drugs.
Don't worry, he will be alright.
Hope I have solved your query. I will be happy to help you further. Wishing good health to your husband. Thanks.
