What Causes Fatigue And Shortness Of Breath?
Hello Dr. My BF has had a cold for three weeks now. For two days now when I wake up I feel a little weak and shortness of breath, I thought I should drink water but that did nothing. Could I be getting a cold, possibly chest cold? I really don t feel much in my chest area, but as the day is progressing I m starting to feel a tad of tightness forming in my chest. Thank you

Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
* As per my clinical experience, the chest discomfort with short breath indicate underlying respiratory tract infection associated with flu. I recommend to consult him with his family doc for further management without delay.
