i get terrible chest pain as i start exercising or even walking a few steps.

Patient: Questions
This is from Dubai. Before, i proceed with my question let me give a brief about myself. I am 40 years old and lead quite a sedentary lifestyle. During the course of few years I have put on quite a bit of weight. Offlate, I have started diet-check and swimming. But, i realise now that i get terrible chest pain as i start exercising or even walking a few steps. I find myself short of breath too. But persisting on with the exercise I do find my breath back and sometimes the pain also vanishes. My hypertension level is quite ok, couple of days back it was 120/70. I have not measured my blood-sugar but i presume it may be ok. Yes, offlate I have started suffering from terrible acidity problem, carrying stubborn ulcers in the mouth and tongue. I, would be glad if some Doctor could please analyse my problem and advise me at the latest. Thanking in anticipation.
