I've been having sharp back, throat, and chest pains recently, and it feels like I can never get enough air.(details)

When I try to take a deep breath though, it hurts the base of my throat into my chest. It's a really sharp pain, and I have trouble sleeping because of it. Any ideas what it is?
Oh, and I have a heart murmur that they diagnosed as a Venus Hum if that makes a difference.

    Go to the doctors! Get second opinions from many doctors.

    Could be signs of a viral infection or your heart problem is getting worst. Talk to your parents about the condition and see a doc. .

    It could be pleurisy. It is an inflammation of the pleural cavity surrounding the lungs. You need to see a doctor. Doctor needs to listen to your breathing and also see if you might have an infection.

    You need to go to the hospital and have yourself checked by a doctor. Since you are 13-15 years old, you should tell your parents to take you to the hospital.
