I'm really worried because I've been experiencing shortness of breath for the past 20 days, and every time I try to breathe, it feels like there's a lot of pressure on my heart. I'm scared that my breathing might suddenly stop. Could this lead to a heart attack, or maybe it's related to COVID-19? I also feel very anxious and could use a recommendation for a good anxiety pill.

Yes,continue same treatment as advised by the physician..

I've done all the heart tests, and they came back clear, but once my blood pressure shot up to 160118 due to stress from an injury. No other issues now, but it's still annoying, and I've consulted two GPs as well. Is this pulse sensation normal, or should I be concerned?
