Mysterious shortness of breath: What has helped you?

I do the same thing , I try to make it last longer!! It blows my mind that I've found people who know how I feel!! Honestly sometimes I think my doctor thinks I'm just being dramatic or faking it. But that is because all my tests come back fine, so I understand he is at a stand still as well. But maybe it's time I say goodbye to my lung specialist and talk to my doctor about going a different route. Ugh I don't know what to do.

I agree re being made to feel like you're being dramatic or faking it, when I went to A&E (I'm like 4 hours away from my registered GP) so that was the only option - the doctor gave me a patronising lesson in 'what it might feel like if we can't take a breath'. Almost categorically labelling me a hysterical anxious person lol. But the GP was far more understanding, I'll need to call again the next days. I'd definitely suggest you get yourself a new route of investigation!
