Chest tightness/shortness of breath
Hi Ladies
So I am just over 8 weeks postpartum.
So since having baby I have had a tight chest and shortness of breath and this is on and off and happens more at night.
I have had many x-rays done and also 2 CT scans and they couldn’t find any clots. I had postpartum sepsis from missed leftover placenta which was 4 weeks ago now.
I have a history or anxiety/depression so the doctor is thinking it is postpartum anxiety/ post traumatic stress from a bad birth/ being in and out of hospital with problems after birth and having sepsis all within a month.
But sometimes I get the shortness of breath and chest tightness when I don’t feel anxious, could it still be the anxiety causing it?
