Breathlessness can't blow up balloon or blow bubbles

Really worried. Almost black out when having to expel air with bubbles or balloons with my kids ...I have to sit on the floor and catch my breath.

Been breathless a while (few months) had bloods done yesterday to check for low iron. Really worried could low iron alone cause it to be this bad?

I can walk for long distances don't have a cough with it just feel like I can't get enough air and expelling it makes me feel light headed. Feel better when being active and some days it's lots worse than others. Just very worried have to wait for these bloods before the gps check for anything else ...

Have you had an X-ray ? If you’re so breathless you’re about to pass out you probably want to at least have an X-ray. Iron deficiency can make you breathless tho and it’s an easy fix.

@Thefamilywaster no the nurse wanted to have my bloods done before referring me for anything else. Just really worried now as it's bad again today but some days better.
