[|Human|] I am a type 2 diabetic with a history of 2 MIs.  I have been ill with a bad cold/bronchitis since Dec 2nd.  I have no energy and get chest pains when I do anything physical - go downstairs, walk more than 100 feet or so, do dishes, etc. My doctor is away until Jan 4th.  Do I need to seek other treatment?.
[|AI|]  Hi thanks for asking question. Noted you have bronchitis plus history of MI attack also. So you are already respiratory and cardiac compromised. Whenever you do some more activity than your tissue might not get enough oxygen as cardiorespi compromise. Here you have to do ECG and echocardiography to rule out cardiac failure secondary to MI. As in cardiac failure also dyspnea and chest pain can occur. If bronchitis is infective then treated with antibiotic. If more difficulty in breathing and chest pain at rest then consultation to doctor done and nebulization with subsequent oxygen therapy might be needed. So better to consult cardiologist to rule out heart failure. Avoid smoking if habit. Take care...
