Hello Katheek,
Thank you for asking at HCM.
I went through your history and would like to know more about you like - What is your age? What are your recent investigations? When did you have asthma? How it was treated? Do you have any allergies at present? etc.
At present, I would like to make following suggestions to you:
1. 164 cm height, 79 kg weight - I think you may be
obese. Your ideal weight in my opinion should be around 65 kg.
Obesity is a very common cause of
exertional dyspnea (breathlessness on physical activity).
So in my opinion, weight reduction should be your priority.
2. I would also like to know your
hemoglobin levels. Please get them done, if not already, and maintain them around 13-14 g% by taking iron tablets,
vitamin B12 &
folic acid.
3. I would also like to know about your
allergy asthma symptoms. Sometimes asthma may cause breathlessness on physical activity.
4. Please get your blood pressure measured and I usually also suggest such patients chest X-ray and electrocardiogram (ECG) to identify any heart problems, especially if you are above 30 years of age.
5. Please consult an experienced physical trainer for weight reduction, please don't start "dieting" by yourself or please don't go for "crash" diets, it may be more harmful than beneficial.
Hope above suggestions will be helpful to you.
Should you have any further query, please feel free to ask at HCM.
Wish you the best of the health ahead.
Thank you & Regards.
