Who is more likely to have dyspnea

You are likely to have chronic dyspnea with lung or heart disease because these conditions interfere with your body's oxygen supply. Obesity and systemic illnesses increase your body's oxygen demands, which can also make you feel short of breath. Chronic dyspnea can also flare up with exposure to cigarette smoke and environmental fumes.

You're welcome :)
