Hi and thank you for the question.

Through the explanation you gave above, I understand the concern you might have over this matter. For your information, there are a few factors that could cause the problems you are having as in:

• asthma
• pneumonia is an infection of the lungs
• chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD)
• pulmonary embolism is blockage of the artery leading to the lungs
• pulmonary hypertension is a high blood pressure condition affecting the arteries of the lung
• stress and anxiety
• heart conditions as heart attack

Due to the fact that the doctor has ruled out any heart condition using ECG and there are no other symptoms pointing out at any other lung disease, it could be due to stress and anxiety. COVID-19 can be occur if you have a recent close contact with a positive case or went to any place with high cases of COVID-19. Symptoms of COVID-19 should be followed with fever, dry cough and tiredness.

I would like to recommend you to relax and meditate to prevent the symptoms if you are having an anxiety attack. Although this is a general explanation of the condition, I advice you to go to the nearest clinic if you are having these symptoms,:

• shortness of breath becomes severe
• shortness of breath keeps you doing daily activities
• shortness of breath when lying down
• swelling in the ankles and feet
• high fever and chills
• cough
