Anxiety over these symptoms would have me seeing some doctor right now even if they didn't know what to do about it. Then I would ask that doctor to call Mayo for advice on what to do right now. Mayo might tell you to get there ASAP or speed up your appointment too if the symptoms warrant that in their book. I have had this experience two times after local doctors shared info with the specialists.

I agree with the Drz. Need to call if you are having increased dsypnea. Do you have an inhaler?
