Hello doctor! I don't know why but I have a hard time breathing, pain in my chest, always having trouble breathing, only getting better 2-3 times, each time for 5 minutes and then having difficulty breathing. Every time I lie down to take a nap or rest, I feel like someone is pressing on my chest, my heart beats fast and I can't breathe. Please tell me, difficulty breathing, heart palpitations and chest pain are signs of disease? I would like to thank the doctor.

Hello! Through the symptoms she is experiencing such as: Shortness of breath, pounding heart and chest pain, the doctor advised her to visit a Cardiologist to rule out congenital heart disease.
When the full examination results are available, the doctor can diagnose the cause of the shortness of breath as well as the appropriate treatment.
You can perform the examination at specialized medical facilities or Vinmec Health System hospitals. I hope to meet you soon to have a more detailed discussion. I wish you good health.
