What Causes Shortness Of Breath And Hardness In Stomach?
hello i m a 35 year old woman i am over weight and lately i been having shortness of breath when i walk now, the top of my stomach is hard and it feels like something is pulling or pressure on the inside. I have to walk and stop and rest and i never had this issue before. My bowels dont move smooth lately it s been few and between. I can eat something and i wont pass it until days later.
Hi, It seems that due to over weight one can have this symptoms but in your case as this happened shortly, any cardiac ailment should be ruled out. There might be having coronary insufficiency i.e. angina pain as there is typical h/o breathlessness during some walking and you have to take rest. Go for EKG to rule out coronary insufficiency. Ok and take care.
