Doctor, I can see you have very good skills in verbal communication. You explain things with huge clarity... if you are not a lecturer already, then please may I ask you to consider this... good lecturers and teachers are a rare commodity (as you will recall from your days of being a student) so I think your skills should be used as a teacher or lecturer in heart medicine.
How kind you are to do this video, especially needed during corona-times: I'm all breathless and now I have some ideas what to think about and double-check. A true act of charity, showing what doctors can do for the world. THANK YOU!

7 years later, this video still is giving help to all…. I just climbed on my shed to cut some wood for the roof and was very breathless… turns out I have exercise intolerance and anxiety. Nice mix that!! Gonna be tough to break that cycle!
I was diagnosed with light case of dysautonomia because I get light shortness of breath and high pulse on exercertiona and sun. Even over eating cause heart rate to be elvated
@@donblade5405 do you take meds for it like beta blockers? I have the same thing and worried. For me i habe all symptoms of heart failure out of breathe even just laying down. When I stand my heart is pounding away hard and fast. Even at rest my heart tends to be super elevated. but my BNP was 35. Echo showed diastolic dysfunction. And small perdcarditis effusion small 0.7. Also trace regurgitation so small regurgitation like 3 valves im 21 and scared .
@MzDaUgly hey. I am a but scared too but beta blockers don't work for everyone. Did u have these issues before BETA BLOCKERS?? I GOT all types of odd breathless issues. Also as .mich as I hate to say this anexity issues run in my family. . I am 50 and been told I have anexity issue since I was 32. I love the beta blocker but decided to stop them when cardio doc did not want me on them 48hrs prior to a stress test so when he said that it discourage me. Never STOP taking then or any med without doctors approval. I did it on my own but slowly. Again not under my doctors approval. I am sure .y blood pressure it a wreck. But I also went straight keto diet which tends to help bp... you are so young so.. I would def rethink what ur systems where before beta blockers. We're u given this only for blood pressure and sinus tachycsrdia?? Many people get on meds for high heart rate due to sinus tachycardia but sinus tachycardia is normal for all types of situation. So people have it when they are taking to much caffeine or diet is not right. Also were u Vax? Did this stuff happen after Vax. Some other things need to be looked at. I am a mess due to genetics and old
When I was diagnosed with A Fib I was breathless when I did any kind of exercise. I haven't had that problem of late and I have been working on diet, exercise, and sleep and just trying to stay healthy-- these things really help. Great video!

A lot of times we go into the doctor's office and go completely blank when there's something truly going on. Always write the list people and bring it with you.

Thank you. My sister had triple bypass surgery 4 months ago and she gets breathless but not every day. It is concerning because she thinks she should be much better by now. The breathless episode just last a few minutes and she will be seeing her cardiologist next month to ask him about it. Thank you again.
Hi Cheryl, how's your sister doing? Did she geta diagnosis or a remedy? My Dad had a triple heart bypass nearly 2 years ago and gets exhausted on minimal exertion. He's had so many tests but they can't diagnose the problem.
@@clarkbrechin7970 most cardiologists don’t care and don’t adress the problem they ignore and are too lazy to figure it out because they don’t update their learning by reading new studies
I was looking online for why one can be breathless is atelactasis following anesthesia so look into that. Several forms but obstructive atelactasis would result from having tube down trachea.
Thank you Dr Gupta for all your RUclips presentations. I've watched quite a few now and it is helping me so much. My LVMI has doubled since my previous 2D Echo test and your videos have helped me to understand what is going on and how I need to take action to prevent matters getting worse. You make everything so easy to understand. I thank you from the bottom of my very imperfect heart.
The thumbs down is a reaction to their own fear & unwillingness to begin their much needed diagnosis & changes in life style that is aggravating the heart health. We all know that, that have chosen to take control of our health. Kudos to you Dr. Gupta. I have started my heart journey.
I always thought that my breathlessness was more due to lung problems than heart but I want to work closely with my doctor for this! ... I'm only 35, this is making me feel a bit sad!
If its a panic attack, then plug one nostril shut, and take a deep breath in through other nostril. Then switch nostril's, and breathe out! Slowly both inhaling and exhaling.
I am 79, I have been doing Crossfit for 9 years. Even did reasonably well in the 65+ CrossFit open. 3 months ago I was at my doctor for something very minor. He put his stethoscope on my back/chest and said I have a murmur. Echocardiogram indicated moderate to serious mitral valve prolapse and regurgitation. Also moderator serious aortic stenosis. Stress test:- METs 10.2 VOL2 Max 35.9. In a couple of weeks I will be having open heart surgery! Luckily I am excellent health and fitness. If I did not go to my doctor I would never have know until it got significantly worse.
thank you, i was feeling scared, since sometimes i get breathless when about to sleep but feel awesome when i jog. this video greatly calmed my nerves❤
My husband had Long QT syndrome that went undiagnosed until his autopsy. He also had asthma so in hindsight I often wonder how many instances of breathlessness were heart related rather than asthma.
After a major heart attack, i am facing shortness of breathing during slipping but no problem during walking, I can walk continue 45-60 minutes without any shortness of breath or any chest discomfort. All problems occur at night while laying down or sleeping. My EF is at 50% after HA.
I have had it when I bend my head down when I'm sitting. It rarely happens, but is still kinda scary to think it could be serious. I also have neck strain from looking at my phone, or computer for hours. It's hard to avoid because I work on a computer all day. I also have had problems where I wake up feeling like i forgot to breath in, or something. But it's not as bad as before, when I would wake up several times a night. Now it will only happen once. It could all be stress related.....I've never had any problems when exercising
I am a man aged 70 who suffers with breathlessness caused by angina which was only diagnosed about 10 years ago even though it started to be a problem 30 years ago....I started to struggle on stairs and even collapsed once or twice,but never had any chest pain until 10 years ago when I began to experience chest pressure on walking uphill which became a problem.But if I stopped for just a few seconds the pressure subsided.It was a strange sensation but I literally could not take another step, I felt like something inside was about to burst open!Anyway I had the angiogram ,got the angina diagnosis...I have more than one narrowed artery,and I was given the Nitromin spray which I never got on with....It did not prevent the breathlessness,in fact it made it worse ...I literally had to wait for the stuff to wear off before I could take a single step.Believe it or not I still have not used up the first spray I was given 10 years ago!But lately my symptoms have worsened and I often feel like I am about to pass out even walking up a slight incline and I start staggering like a drunken man,It's made me reluctant to go out but I am alone and need to get to the shops on foot.
I am.50 and feel.like.i am.in your shoes. Or a few steps. Back.. my issues of light breathlessness started 38. And just something now right but every so often it would b worse with high heart rate and blood pressure. No I experience what u are saying with stairs 100
Thanks doctor. I like your vids more than any others online. You make it easy for me to understand my heart 💗 .I am.over weight but I'm solid thick build kind of guy. Even on drugs years ago and strung out not eat well at all I was 180 pounds at my worst. I'm now 250 pounds and I have not weight lifting for 2 years since refuse covid vaccines I have gained fat and no gym . I'm out of breath walking even I noticed yesterday. No chest pains lately but I had weird flutters and feeling sensation in heart recently. I'm going for a heart EKG for my Suboxone treatment and I do have left ventricular hypertrophy as well. I'm afraid I'm have something seriously wrong in my heart . Come to think of it I'm catch my breath alot lately even at rest , something is wrong. Thank you and I'm Go for EKG soon. I'm on several medications for high blood pressure and I'm taking aspirin daily or every second day. These heart issues scare me .
The reason why I ask I was taking bisoprolol and it was causing breathlessness. When I stopped taking it my breathing improved. My cardiologist mentioned this can happen in a small percentage of people. I’m not saying to stop taking your medicine but it’s worth looking into and asking your doctor.
@@mirocabraja5128 yes I was. Wise to stop taking those as well. Terrible stuff. Doctors keep us on drugs that only weaken us long term and cause future health problems. It's an evil viciious systym of big pharma scientists make new drugs to keep us on something. Evil evil government as well. I'm done with all medications for close to 6 months now and im healthier than ever before and lowest bodyfat % and most muscle mass now. The system had me for years. Never again. Thanks for the tips and comments .
My hb 10 but ferritin 6...bt doctors dont admit it to be possible at 10 haemoglobin..my problem not going..how much it took for you to recover nd become normal
Never knew what it felt like untell one day as a kid at the park I fell on my back and got the wind knocked out me trying to gasp for air was the scariest thing ever only last like 5 seconds but it was 5 scary seconds
My breathlessness is at rest. It wakes me up at night around an hour into sleep. I'm worried. you mentioning that it may not be a critical health condition gave a some mental relief. I'm still going to get checked by my doctor. Thanks for the information!
Thanks for your concern guys, it was a mixture of intense anxiety, nutritional deficiencies, insomnia and caffeine sensitivity. Turns out coffee helps me go to sleep but doesn't keep me asleep (I was tested for sleep apnea two years ago, but if I saw this comment I would assume the same)
@@iidevilsspawnii6506 do you feel that when you breath normally you have the need of wanting to breath heavily because that's what happens to me but breathing normally decreases the heavy breathing because I fight it
I have chest pain, but it’s very brief and random. Normally when I get short of breath, it’s after I eat if I sit down. Could I just have a case of acid reflux?
Thank you youre so sweet! If you have a chance, do you have any advice for this situation? My Dr is stumped :/.... I have breathlessness but perfectly fine O2 levels, dizzines/weakness/being off balance with low blood pressure that seems to fluctuate (will be getting a new cuff to double check). I habe asthma and allergies and anxiety but my symptoms feel different than anything I feel from any of those and are mostly while at rest. Upon excercising more they improve until Im done and then are typically worse. Ive always felt this was related to blood sugar, but again numbers are completely normal o.o... No pressure to answer if youre busy or arent sure... Again just thank you for the video and stay well ❤
Hey Sunjay, I've started getting these so called ectopic beats for a few months, they've gone away for two months and started again with other symptoms like dizziness, should I consider increasing my potassium and magnesium intake? I got tested a few months ago and I have a structurally normal heart, blood pressure is fine and they suggested the 24 hour test however said its not completely necessary so I didn't go ahead with that.
I do have a idea on how to stable your breathlessness , it worked for me , but im not sure if it work the same for you. 1. Dont panic and sit up right 2. Dont take a deep breathe for as long as you can 3. Try to focus on something else that can fully distract you from the breathlessness Keep in mind that this is a idea from a random stranger and *NOT* a docter.
Thanks again Dr Guptor. Yes I presented to my GP with breathlessness and medicated last July. No remission so my GP naturally passed me to a certain Respiratory Consultant who diagnosed Dysfunctional Breathing which was passed back to my GP with no BNP taken by the consultant. More exercise/treadmill and gym work needed apparently. One week later extremely acute breathlessness, back to hospital and the receiving doctor echoed and found heart failure within 30 minutes.
You're a wonderful human being, thank you very much on behalf of me and a bunch of other strangers on the internet ❤😊 Also a question, should one get their calcium levels checked if they have high blood pressure and will vitamins D3 and K2 help the body to absorb calcium therefore plaques, lessening the chance of a heart attack/clot ?
Thank you Dr. Gupta for sharing. All of your videos that I have listened to have been so helpful. May GOD richly Bless you for you kindness in sharing your knowledge with others. I am certain with just sharing your knowledge you have saved many lives. You have given me a lot of peace and understanding as to my newly diagnosed condition. I am not one to go the conventional route and am determined to conquer this holistically and with faith in YAHUSHUAH and by HIS WORD that by HIS stripes, we are healed. Nutrition and rest heals. Drugs kill.
This eased my anxiety a bit hearing that if it was a heart problem it would get worse with exercise. I think I have bad anxiety attacks and the last 3 days I’ve been having trouble breathing when I’m not laying down. Exercise and Yoga help (or at the very least, temporarily reduce breathlessness).
I have Afib. It's mostly under control with flecenaide. But now I feel very weak, as if I was anemic. I walk for a few minutes and feel almost as if my blood pressure drops. Or I will feel disconnected from the ground. I am eating a very healthy plant based diet, and have tried b vitamin shots. Nothing helps.

I am a man aged 70 who suffers with breathlessness caused by angina which was only diagnosed about 10 years ago even though it started to be a problem 30 years ago....I started to struggle on stairs and even collapsed once or twice,but never had any chest pain until 10 years ago when I began to experience chest pressure on walking uphill which became a problem.But if I stopped for just a few seconds the pressure subsided.It was a strange sensation but I literally could not take another step, I felt like something inside was about to burst open!Anyway I had the angiogram ,got the angina diagnosis...I have more than one narrowed artery,and I was given the Nitromin spray which I never got on with....It did not prevent the breathlessness,in fact it made it worse ...I literally had to wait for the stuff to wear off before I could take a single step.Believe it or not I still have not used up the first spray I was given 10 years ago!But lately my symptoms have worsened and I often feel like I am about to pass out even walking up a slight incline and I start staggering like a drunken man,It's made me reluctant to go out but I am alone and need to get to the shops on foot.
I am.50 and feel.like.i am.in your shoes. Or a few steps. Back.. my issues of light breathlessness started 38. And just something now right but every so often it would b worse with high heart rate and blood pressure. No I experience what u are saying with stairs 100
Get it checked out m8
Thank you that was very helpful.
Wonderful. Doctor thank you for your excellent lectures you are very generous with your knowledge , from western Canada.
Thanks doctor. I like your vids more than any others online. You make it easy for me to understand my heart 💗 .I am.over weight but I'm solid thick build kind of guy. Even on drugs years ago and strung out not eat well at all I was 180 pounds at my worst. I'm now 250 pounds and I have not weight lifting for 2 years since refuse covid vaccines I have gained fat and no gym . I'm out of breath walking even I noticed yesterday. No chest pains lately but I had weird flutters and feeling sensation in heart recently. I'm going for a heart EKG for my Suboxone treatment and I do have left ventricular hypertrophy as well. I'm afraid I'm have something seriously wrong in my heart . Come to think of it I'm catch my breath alot lately even at rest , something is wrong. Thank you and I'm Go for EKG soon. I'm on several medications for high blood pressure and I'm taking aspirin daily or every second day. These heart issues scare me .
Are u taking any beta blockers like bisoprolol
The reason why I ask I was taking bisoprolol and it was causing breathlessness. When I stopped taking it my breathing improved. My cardiologist mentioned this can happen in a small percentage of people. I’m not saying to stop taking your medicine but it’s worth looking into and asking your doctor.
@@mirocabraja5128 yes I was. Wise to stop taking those as well. Terrible stuff. Doctors keep us on drugs that only weaken us long term and cause future health problems. It's an evil viciious systym of big pharma scientists make new drugs to keep us on something. Evil evil government as well. I'm done with all medications for close to 6 months now and im healthier than ever before and lowest bodyfat % and most muscle mass now. The system had me for years. Never again. Thanks for the tips and comments .
I was short of breath due to low iron. My Hemoglobin was 'fine', but my Ferritin was ZERO. This was all due to very heavy periods ('flooding').
That's been me since last week!
Me too
Yes, me too and I was at 11 ferritan
My hb 10 but ferritin 6...bt doctors dont admit it to be possible at 10 haemoglobin..my problem not going..how much it took for you to recover nd become normal
Thank you for this video.
Great public service thank you very much.
Never knew what it felt like untell one day as a kid at the park I fell on my back and got the wind knocked out me trying to gasp for air was the scariest thing ever only last like 5 seconds but it was 5 scary seconds
My breathlessness is at rest. It wakes me up at night around an hour into sleep. I'm worried.
you mentioning that it may not be a critical health condition gave a some mental relief. I'm still going to get checked by my doctor. Thanks for the information!
That sounds like sleep apnoea. Did you get a diagnosis?
It's hy
Hyperventilation
Thanks for your concern guys, it was a mixture of intense anxiety, nutritional deficiencies, insomnia and caffeine sensitivity. Turns out coffee helps me go to sleep but doesn't keep me asleep (I was tested for sleep apnea two years ago, but if I saw this comment I would assume the same)
@@iidevilsspawnii6506 do you feel that when you breath normally you have the need of wanting to breath heavily because that's what happens to me but breathing normally decreases the heavy breathing because I fight it
Very informative, thank you!
Very informative, and Helpful, and Appreciated! THANK YOU, Dr. Gupta!!!
I have chest pain, but it’s very brief and random. Normally when I get short of breath, it’s after I eat if I sit down. Could I just have a case of acid reflux?
good knowledge for heart fuction
It's always so enjoyable hearing him talk
Thank you Dr. Gupta...much appreciated your video...Many Blessings to you...
Thank you youre so sweet! If you have a chance, do you have any advice for this situation? My Dr is stumped :/.... I have breathlessness but perfectly fine O2 levels, dizzines/weakness/being off balance with low blood pressure that seems to fluctuate (will be getting a new cuff to double check). I habe asthma and allergies and anxiety but my symptoms feel different than anything I feel from any of those and are mostly while at rest. Upon excercising more they improve until Im done and then are typically worse. Ive always felt this was related to blood sugar, but again numbers are completely normal o.o... No pressure to answer if youre busy or arent sure... Again just thank you for the video and stay well ❤
Hey Sunjay, I've started getting these so called ectopic beats for a few months, they've gone away for two months and started again with other symptoms like dizziness, should I consider increasing my potassium and magnesium intake? I got tested a few months ago and I have a structurally normal heart, blood pressure is fine and they suggested the 24 hour test however said its not completely necessary so I didn't go ahead with that.
don't you mean DR SUNJAY ???
How are you ?
@@giftnwolisa2521 Still alive haha
Very useful info and you have a pleasant way of explaining the facts.
great video! Many thanks.
I do have a idea on how to stable your breathlessness , it worked for me , but im not sure if it work the same for you.
1. Dont panic and sit up right
2. Dont take a deep breathe for as long as you can
3. Try to focus on something else that can fully distract you from the breathlessness
Keep in mind that this is a idea from a random stranger and *NOT* a docter.
Are tou experiencing shortness of breath?
This idea is better than any doctor can give
Thanks again Dr Guptor. Yes I presented to my GP with breathlessness and medicated last July. No remission so my GP naturally passed me to a certain Respiratory Consultant who diagnosed Dysfunctional Breathing which was passed back to my GP with no BNP taken by the consultant. More exercise/treadmill and gym work needed apparently. One week later extremely acute breathlessness, back to hospital and the receiving doctor echoed and found heart failure within 30 minutes.
Brian Leary Thank God your alive.
great work, so knowledge driven..........
Thanks for the advice.
You're a wonderful human being, thank you very much on behalf of me and a bunch of other strangers on the internet ❤😊
Also a question, should one get their calcium levels checked if they have high blood pressure and will vitamins D3 and K2 help the body to absorb calcium therefore plaques, lessening the chance of a heart attack/clot ?
Thank you sir for ur information. And what is the reason for breathelessnesswhen some one lying flat.
So pleased to hear your explanation - thx you
Thank you Dr. Gupta for sharing. All of your videos that I have listened to have been so helpful. May GOD richly Bless you for you kindness in sharing your knowledge with others. I am certain with just sharing your knowledge you have saved many lives. You have given me a lot of peace and understanding as to my newly diagnosed condition. I am not one to go the conventional route and am determined to conquer this holistically and with faith in YAHUSHUAH and by HIS WORD that by HIS stripes, we are healed. Nutrition and rest heals. Drugs kill.
This eased my anxiety a bit hearing that if it was a heart problem it would get worse with exercise. I think I have bad anxiety attacks and the last 3 days I’ve been having trouble breathing when I’m not laying down. Exercise and Yoga help (or at the very least, temporarily reduce breathlessness).
Breath in through the nose by pushing the stomach out for 4 sec, breath out through almost closed mouth for 8 sec. Repeat at least 5 times.
@@romie7054 believe me I'm having this problem for 5 days and same thing happened with me as you commented 🙏..and I know you googled it too..
@@romie7054 & how are you now?❤️
I have Afib. It's mostly under control with flecenaide. But now I feel very weak, as if I was anemic. I walk for a few minutes and feel almost as if my blood pressure drops. Or I will feel disconnected from the ground. I am eating a very healthy plant based diet, and have tried b vitamin shots. Nothing helps.
Dr Gupta ...keep up your good work ...way to go...God bless 🙏
Excellent presentation.
Does hypertension medicine causes difficulty in breathing?
