Breathlessness when I walk too much

2024-07-03 12:08:50
Hello doctors, I am a type-1 diabetic and also have thyroid. I am also taking anxiety medicines. Usually i used to have panic attacks which would cause me breathlessness but whenever I walk to much I feel suffocated. Are there any tests that would confirm me if there's any problem. I don't have wheezing. I just feel suffocated. Please mention any tests to confirm if I have any problem in breathing. Thankyou and appreciate it.
