for the past week i've experienced shallow breathing and pressure on my chest. i am not a heavy smoker by any means and haven't had a cig in two days. i take 10mg about 3 times weekly which tends to help me with my hectic schedule. could the pressure just be stress or has anyone else experienced this?

Go to the ER. NOW. I mean it. I'm an RN with cardiac experience. This could be simple stress or it could be something more serious, and you need to be checked out. Now.

GO!!!

Let us know what you find out piperali! Hopefully it is anxiety and not cardiac, but all the same, let us know.
