My chest been hurting now for a few weeks on and off im also concerned by my breathing feels like sometimes I cant get a breath. My dr did my sats on a machine at the surgery and they were 93% im scared she said she thought it was hyperventalion. Can anything else cause low saturation?

If she listened to your lungs and they sounded normal I really wouldn't worry. The beauty of the cardiovascular system is anything majorly wrong with it is obvious to doctors via the stethoscope. :)

Have you been given breathing exercises?

Bev hun read back through your threads, you have been reporting these symptoms since 2008.

If your doctor was worried she would have investigated it further.

Rather than listening to people on here who are not medically qualified, trust your doc.

She told you it was hyperventilation and anxiety will cause the chest pains too.

The doctor would not let you walk out if they thought you were in medical danger.

90-100 is considered normal. What is it you're concerned with?
