Mysterious shortness of breath: What has helped you?

Just left the doctor and it is frustrating because he said I don’t need any referrals and that I am healthy. He said wants me to try an anxiety medication for 4/6 weeks. I told him I get anxiety over the air hunger but other than that don’t really have it. Not sure if I should give it a go or not. Has anyone has their SOB go away while on anxiety meds?

Nope. They lessen the intensity of attacks though. My doctor kind of explained it to me that the anxiety medication may "break a habit" of the SOB. So, he put me on Xanax for a while. I still get attacks though.
