What Does Chest Pain And Shortness Of Breath Indicate?

Hi, I have a doctors appointment in 2 hours after running through a barrage of questions about my chest pains. The lady on the phone repeatedly asked me if I was out of breath and at the time I was not. I now feel weezy and short of breath. Do I need to be concerned right away, or can I make the 2 hour appointment.
