Is being short of breath a sign of heart disease


Is being short of breath a sign of heart disease?
I sometimes get short of breath when I walk not all the time but sometimes and never when i am inactive, just if I walk fast some times and sometimes when I walk slow. It comes and goes.

I think this matter is not so serious to be termed as a heart disease. Some of the common symptoms of heart disease includes: - Trouble breathing continuously - Multiple shallow breaths where it̢۪s hard to inhale deeply - Unnecessary sweating and sticky palms - Sick to your stomach - Rapid or accelerating heartbeat - Discomfort in your chest area - Tightness in your arms, shoulder and/or chest
