Anon, there are different things that can cause shortness of breath, but since it is combined with chest pain (which you link directly to your heart), I really, really want you to see a doctor about this very soon.

Is that possible?

And are you saying that these problems just started two days ago, and you never felt them before?

The other questions I would ask you (have you called that doctor yet?) are whether you have done anything extra-strenuous, whether you have eaten anything very different from your normal diet, whether you have strained a muscle in other ways or whether you have started any new medicines or routines in the last few days that might be responsible for the pain and shortness of breath you're feeling. And I'd wonder if you had allergies, or had had a cold recently.

Do you have a doctor or can we help you find one? Where do you live?
