I'm having this breathlessness now and then, especially when I'm traveling or visiting new places. There's also this tightness right in the middle of my chest. Do you think this could be anxiety, or should I be worried about something related to my heart?

My aunt has a heart problem and doctors recommended a heart valve replacement, including Dr Anil Bhan last year. We couldn't afford it then, but now she's admitted at SKIMS Hospital in Srinagar and her condition is serious. She has young daughters, so we really need to figure this out. Can you tell me the approximate cost for the valve replacement surgery, including hospital stay and medicines? We need to arrange funds quickly to save her life.

Heart has 4 valves in all . I would need to see a 2 D Echo and then decide what surgery and then predict appropriate cost
