[|Human|] i am struggling from shortness of breath after walking 3-4 meters. Once seated and trying to take deep breaths i start losing the shallow breathing, slowly after1 minute. This happens regardless of what i am doing. This has been getting worse since the weekend.
[|AI|]  Thanks for your question on Chat Doctor. By your history, in my opinion you are having dyspnea on minimal exertion. Common causes for this are1. Cardiac causes like heart failure, ischemic heart disease etc.2. Pulmonary causes like COPD (Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease) , fibrosis, etc. So get done ECG and 2D Echo to rule out cardiac cause. Get done chest x-ray and PFT (PULMONARY FUNCTION TEST) to rule out pulmonary causes. So consult doctor and discuss all these.
