Question

Why do I keep feeling heaviness in my chest and difficulty catching my breath, even though my echocardiogram report is normal?

If ECHO is normal and symptoms persist, consider non cardiac causes, anxiety, acid reflux, or pulmonary issues. A normal ECHO rules out most heart failure or valve issues, but ECG or stress test may help if pain worsens with activity.
