What Causes Chest Discomfort After Taking Albuterol?

I take albuterol twice a day and have avoided Advair but now more chest discomfort when playing tennis than in the past. I passed 3 heart tests in 2007. But could I have a valve problem. I have all good colestoral numbers and perfect blood pressure my whole life and ideal weight. No history in family. Maybe I should stay on Advair to avoid taking albuterol it seems. Tried to avoid any cortisone type meds.

HI
Well come to HCM
I really appreciate your concern, if this is the asthma and this is exercise induce then you need to stay away from sports, if you want to clear the doubt about the valvular heart disease then ECHO test has to be done for this, any bronchodilator could work in the same way and you can take what ever most suits you, hope this information helps, take care.
I find this answer helpful
