I'm having a really hard time breathing?

[JessicaM]

Everytime I breathe in my chest feels super tight. Ihave just about the slightest athsma ever. and i already used my enhaler and that did nothing. Its winter time so there is no dry air. Also im 14 if that helps anythign. What do you guys think is wrong?? thanks so much for your answers in advance

i get the same thing. i went to the doctor and they tested me for asthma, but the medication didn't help very much so they decided that wasn't it. they also checked my heart and it was fine.

if you haven't had an EKG or one of those heart monitors hooked up to you for 24 hours you may need to get that done. apparently a tight chest and difficulty breathing could also be a heart murmur or something that can cause one.

you may also have a slight lung infection. i was tested for that too, but with negative results...

in the end, the doctors had no idea what it was. they chalked it up to either allergies or anxiety and gave me medication for both. neither work.
