Understanding your concern. As per your query you have shortness of breath, tight chest, tingly fingers and feet . Well there can be many reasons for symptoms you mention in query like congestive heart failure , kidney failure or diabetic ketoacidosis . I would suggest you to consult cardiologist without any delay . Doctor may order ECG , TMT along with troponin t test and complete blood profile . Doctor may prescribe betablockers , diuretics along with anti coagulant . Doctor may refer you to nephrologist for kidney problem and endocrinologist for diabetes problem .Doctor may also refer you to chest specialist for chest infection . For now stay calm , lower your salt consumption and keep legs elevated while sleeping .
Hope your concern has been resolved.
Get Well Soon.
