Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
What Could Cause Shortness Of Breath While Lying Down And Climbing The Stairs?
For several days I cant sleep because my breathing seem to stop when I am lying down. Its hard to breath every time I came up the stairs. When I went to see a doctor the prescription are azithromycin and sinactiv. I got better but after a few weeks the symptoms like shortness of breath is starting again. What is wrong with me? should I go back to a doctor.
The symptoms are suggestive of cardiac causes like cardiac failure. Consult a physician and get evaluated. You have to go for an echo test for further evaluation.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
Regards,
