General & Family Physician,  's  Response
Hello,

Kindly check your blood cholesterol level and blood pressure, chest x-ray, and pulmonary function test. Lose some weight. Shortness of breath should be investigated first before treatment.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
