Before anyone tells me to go to the gp, I am waiting for a call back from the gp. Just panicking due to google.
Have had shortness of breath for a few days, just doesn’t feel like I’m getting enough oxygen, it’s worse when I’m lying down and I get the occasional pain in my chest, I feel lethargic and I’m not sleeping (waking with shortness of breath). I do suffer from anxiety but not sure it’s that. Occasional cough but chest doesn’t feel congested. I’m fit, my bmi is spot on, I keep fit (but struggling with the gym at the moment) but I do suffer with high cholesterol which I have been unsuccessful at lowering, gp says I may have a condition where it won’t lower despite a healthy ish diet.
I’m panicking that it may be my heart, is there anything else it could be?
Gp is calling me back in a bit to see if I need seeing today, not sure why they wouldn’t let me make an appointment.
