What Causes Short Breath, Feeling Of Fullness Of Stomach?
My hubby is going to be 86 years old........just in the past week he has shortness of breath and his stomach feels full all the time......we saw his doctor today and he said his heart and lungs are fine.....because of his oxygen level was 99 percent.......I wish I knew what specifically is wrong with him......

welcome to hcm,
his oxygen saturation is normal and shortness of breath may be because of many reasons. if his treating physician didnot find any problem in his lungs and heart hopefully he is ok.
does he have shortness of breath now too?
how long breathlessness was there ?
is he alright now
review with all the investigations you had already taken with medical reports any to comment on his situation more
hope this explains
