Breathlessness
I have been feeling breathless from yesterday with episodes of tachycardia and Chest pain. I was rushed to ER and discharged by diagnosis of sinus tachycardia. But on and off shortness of breath still persists. My oxygen levels are 98-99. I have had an Echo a month with mild PAH 31mm hg which was told normal. And I haven't had breathing issues until yesterday. Now I am feeling it all of a sudden even without exertion and also feel burps and acidity as well ? Is it psychological or my PAH is getting bad ?
