I'm dealing with some breathing issues over the last couple of months. I've tried ECG and echo tests, and I've been taking gastritis tablets every day. My oxygen levels seem fine, like 99 on the oximeter, but the doctors keep saying it's nothing. But I constantly feel like I'm struggling to breathe, like air isn't coming in right through my nose, and there's this pressure in my chest making it hard to breathe properly. Can you help me figure out what's going on?

I'm a smoker and have been feeling pain in my lungs, plus I've got this burning sensation in my stomach. I'm also dealing with gastric and digestive issues. Can you tell me what might be going on or what tests I could get to check my lungs' health? I've been getting this itchy feeling on my chest, and my left shoulder and arm are aching. I'm really looking for some advice on how to deal with these problems and any precautions I should be taking for my lungs. Would appreciate any help.
