Short of breath while sitting at computer chair.

I seam to be very short of breath just as I sit at my computer chair. It is making me lightheaded and a little dizzy. It sometimes feels like I have something tight around my chest. I have been getting this for a while on and off. I went to my dr but she just gives me the same answer to everything. Im thinking of getting a new dr. I could be covered in a rash head to toe and this is what she would say. “You need to go for a brisk walk”. Its not like Im not completely active. I just dont have time to work out and I cant stic with a workout plan for more then 2 weeks. I keep hydrated. I always ahve a water bottle beside me. My diet is ok. its not perfect but Im actually starting to eat better then before this started happening.

Answer #1

I think you should find a new doctor. It’s really not normal to get out of breath and light headed while sitting

Answer #2

does it happen while sitting at the dinner table or on the sofa? If not, sit up straight, open a window or spend less time at the computer
