Shortness of breath?!
Question:
Shortness of breath?
I have had shortness of breath since i was in middle school and i have now been out of high school for about 7 years now. I have been tested for asthma and was told i do not have it. I was diagnosed with mitral valve prolapse which makes my heart race. But i have been taking deep breaths every few minutes since this started in middle school. It has become a part of my life and most of the time doesn't bother me. I'm just curious if anyone may have any idea why it does this? Like i said i do have mitral valve prolapse, i am 24, i weigh around 100 lbs, very thin. Any help would be great!
Answers:
Of course your doctor will advise you and you can get literature from the library about this and what types of activities are good for you, your heart does not function properly. Follow your doctors advice.
