Shortness of Breath
Shortness of breath or difficulty breathing should be an alarming symptom, regardless of the cause. Unless the patient is exercising, difficulty drawing breath can be a sign that something is seriously wrong.
If a patient also has other ischemia symptoms, they should see a doctor right away. Physicians have the experience and equipment necessary to determine whether ischemia is the cause of shortness of breath and other symptoms a patient may be experiencing.
