hello,..you are having chest pain off n on ..u cant attribute it to heart necessarily .it can be due to other reasons .as you r young probablity is more that your chest pain is due to anxiety or some other noncardiac problm .you need to look for how it gets relieved ..if it gets betters wd some anxiety reducin medicibes then anxiety can b the cause else you should go for ecg nd confirm the cause of chest pain first .
you are having shortness of breath ..while walkng .i suggest you to first of all get your CBC test done .to see if you have deficiency of hemoglobin.as if hv deficiency of hb you get shortness of breath and tachycardia .
only once you get your cbc and if hemoglobin is normal in that .we can say that your shortness of breath can be due to some lungs problms .
