Mysterious shortness of breath: What has helped you?

So, I was back in ER tonight with severe shortness of breath and intense chest pressure that lasted longer than two hours before I went in. The result - "it is not a heart attack or PE. Go home, but comes back if something changes or gets worse." It changed, it got worse, so I went in. Yet the same ole same ole happened - nothing! (Except for me to be a human pin cushion; I am a hard stick and it took 3 nurses 40 minutes and 7 sticks to put in an IV line that thankfully was not needed.) Sigh.

Have you had heart tests as in echo or moniter? Have you had lung function tests or blood gas test done?
