I had Covid over 4 1/2 years ago. I keep a log of my symptoms since my infection. One of the many symptoms that I still have is gasping for air, even when I am not exerting myself. I have been to may specialist, who have tried tests, scans, and breathing exercises. None has helped, but one test found an issue. A sleep study found that I stop breathing repeatedly during sleep. I now have to wear an APAP machine which forces air into my lungs which limits my events of no breathing. The machine tracks my events and my pulmonologist can adjust the air pressure to limit events. I hope this help you look for answers for help.
