Q: Shortness of Breath
asked by: 1httruck on June 6th, 2006

Hi I went to the doctor about 3 months ago for shortness of breath. She did a chest xray which was normal, ecg normal, blood pressure high. She said the shortness of breath was due to anxiety. She put me on meds for that and blood pressure. Well still 3 months later I still have the shortness of breath. With no exerise, I can just be sitting down, does that still sound like anxiety. I asked her about lung cancer cause I used to smoke for 13 years. I am now 29. She said no it would of showed up in the xray and blood work. Does anyone know if this true?

I also have similar kind of symptons as 1httruck and 2Opera. I got all my blood test done, O2 level check, Lung xray, epicardiaogram.Everything is normal. Having this issue since last 2 months . Dr. put me on vallium for anxiey and then i asked him that I cannot work as it causes drowsiness , he gave another one (I dont remember)for anxiety. Its notworking at all. Any suggestions?I dont have any kind of pains. I just took creatine for 2 months about 2 months ago and I did read creatine can cause this.
