I feel chest heaviness that sometimes travels under right arm pit a feel very sluggish, can feel my pulse right under my throat, I am 54 female, I have COPD how do I know if this is a heart issue or chest congestion?

If you know you have COPD, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, and you have this heaviness symptom, then I would make a doctor's appt. immediately to rule out any other health issues developing from the COPD. We do not diagnose on AMHD.

No diagnosis can be given on line. If you are worried about your condition, you need a doctor's intervention.

Thanks for the disagree, sorry I didn't make it clear. We can't tell you how serious your condition is, ER, doctor, whatever. I said doctor. I don't know you or your medical history from a rock so how can we be specific in where to send you?

Didn't I say a DOCTOR IMMEDIATELY

Edit: We don't send diagnosis or information by e mail. Any answers or information you get is strictly on here.
