What Causes Headaches Along With Chest Pain?
My cardiologist said he could here very little air when he listen to my lungs. I am having headaches(front and the back of my head), backaches all the way up to my neck, congestion and sometimes a pain in my chest. Should I be concerned? Should I go to another doctor?

Hi,
Having headaches might indicate:
- oscillations in blood pressure: I'd advise to monitor your blood pressure, record the results to get them checked by your doctor
- oscillation in blood sugar levels: should monitor your bs and record the results
Congestion and pain in chest might indicate:
- heart disease
- lung issues
If your cardiologist could not hear enough air in your lungs, then, further evaluation by pulmonologist is advised together with chest X-ray to determine the right cause.
Wish fast recovery!
