Suggest Treatment For Difficulty In Breathing And Chest Pain
Hi I m having a really hard time breathing and chest pains and I have a pulse oxomiter thing and when I put it on my pulse was at 42 and my oxygen keep us dropping to about 90. this has happened multiple times. Last night when i felt like I couldn t breathe and extremely dizzy, when I put it on, it said I was at 42 for my pulse and 85 for my oxygen. We went to the ER and they really didn t do much because they didn t monitor me and watch the drops that occur very frequently. They put on the monitors but for a brief minute. They didn t watch and they really didn t listen to me. I m really miserable and I m afraid something could happen or something could be wrong. Is there anything this could be?

Hello,
Difficulty in breathing and chest pain is likely to be due to respiratory tract infection. I suggest you to consult your pulmonologist for clinical assessment, relevant investigations and thus management.
