I am really scared. I went to the hospital with palpitations and they ended up giving me a chest xray. 2 weeks later I got a text from my GP that says on the xray it looks like I've had a recent chest infection and they want to repeat it in the middle of August. 

The thing is I haven't had a chest infection recently and I've jumped straight to the worse case scenario.

For over 18 months I've been wheezing (sounds like birds singing when I'm sat quietly) and I always feel like I've just chocked on water, you like after you have recovered from it and it feels a bit thickly, like that, but I put it down to GERD (bad heartburn). 

Ive been getting out of breath a lot too but I put that down to my weight and the fact I've not been able to get about much with osteoarthritis. 

Safe to say I am really worried. I'm only 44 I don't smoke and I've got young kids. I'm so. Scared.
