Difficult to breather after 100m walking
Hi Doc,
My mom is 72 years old and takes high BP medicines daily. Though she is fine and able to walk but she looses her breath even after walking 100m. That way, she has to stop every 100m to relax before walking further. Any medication or suggestions please?
