What does it mean when your heart feels like it has a weight on it pulling it down with shortness of breath? Went to see a doctor and he said my chest was clear. Heart seems to be beating normal to me. Taking a deep breath hurts too. Doctor took bloodwork but didn t seem to be getting or giving any real answers. Please help. Thanks
HI this feeling can be termed as heaviness in chest a due ache like feeling rather termed as heaviness associated with breathlessness, it can be indicator of angina or congestive cardiac failure. Some basic tests of cardiology has to be done like 2d echo, treadmill test ECG has to be done to rule out whether it is due to angina or CHF
