  5. I've been experiencing this slight breathlessness for the past few days, like I constantly need to take deep breaths every few seconds. Occasionally, there's also a mild pain in my chest. I saw a local doctor who thinks it might be Air Hunger, maybe from exertion or anxiety, and he suggested I try some energy boosters. I'm a little worried it might be something more serious. Should I be more concerned or is this something not too serious?

do ECG AND CHEST X RAY to rule out serious issues
