Having problems with chest and breathing

2017-11-08 09:22:02
I'm having chest tightness all day, everyday, sometimes mild, sometimes a bit severe. These last months It's gotten worse. I started having these symptoms 2 years ago. At first it didn't make me feel discomforted, but now I can endure it anymore. A year ago I did a spirometry test&chest x-ray, all were very normal. Might I have asthma? I don't cough or wheeze, just breathing difficulty and chest tightness. Neurologist said I have spasms. Should I do spirometry again to be sure I havent asthma?
