Difficulty in Breathing

2015-10-16 02:20:08
I'm 30 yrs, M, 58 Kgs. For the past 1-2 weeks I'm having difficulty in breathing. I've to breathe very hard in order to get sufficient oxygen inside. This difficulty increases when I lie down to sleep. I pant a lot when I take 2 flights of stairs, which didn't use to happen earlier. Is this heart issue or lungs issue?
