Breathlessness
I have been having breathlessness more specifically while lying down or sleep. I went to ECG. It was normal. My 2D echo says mild TR and RSVP 24 mmhg and EF 60% apart from that everything came normal in ECHO. My BNP test came less than 5 ( a day back NT pro BNP was 132) but in ER it came normal. I have had angiography an year and half back it was normal with Myocardial Bridge in LAD. Is it PAH ? Does that warrant further investigation? Do I need to go angiography again ?

No, you don't need angiogram again But you need thorough review and pulmonary test done including chest X Ray, pulmonary function test. Many a time this can be due to Bronchial Asthma also
