Shortness of breath during light exercise is one of the classic signs that doctors pay attention to, especially if it comes on suddenly or gets worse. Scientists have long confirmed a link between heart problems and chest pain, swelling in the legs, and a fast or irregular heartbeat. If you notice any of these things in yourself - don't panic right away, but don't put off seeing a doctor either, because heart problems can progress without you noticing them.
Chest pain or discomfort, especially if it radiates to your left arm or jaw - that's a serious warning sign too, and yeah, this is something you should actually worry about 🚩 It's not necessarily a heart attack, but you definitely shouldn't ignore it - better to go see a doctor and get an EKG done. If the pain is sharp, sudden and won't go away - just call an ambulance, don't wait around. Overall, any unusual sensations in your chest that you haven't had before is a reason to get checked out. Better to make sure everything's fine than regret it later.
The main thing is not to panic and not google symptoms at night, it just makes you overthink everything. Swelling in your legs and constant fatigue can also hint at heart problems, especially if it happens for no obvious reason, like you weren't running around all day or anything. If you notice something like that - that's a reason to go see a doctor and get an EKG, but don't make a big deal out of it, just get checked and you'll know for sure what's going on.
