I Get Short Of Breath Very Easily

I get short of breath very easily (just 10 mins walking, doing 20 pushups etc). Do I have Heart Disease?
I am a 23 year old male. I dont smoke. I rarely drink. I dont exercise too much but I walk at least 30 mins a day. I am 6 feet tall and I weigh 155 lbs. I have never had serious respiratory problems. I'm not SOB while sleeping. No previous injuries. Never get SOB while sitting/without exertion. Only after exercise.

go to the doc and ask for a stress test.. you should'nt get short of breath so easily... it could be heart related but could also be anxiety related too.. go get it checked out!
