Mysterious shortness of breath: What has helped you?

Three years ago I didn't have arithmia, but my BP and pulse is usually very low. Nowadays it feels even worse.
I definitely have lightheadedness, muscle cramps and inflammation, lately headache, acidic stomach (for some days I've been taking PPI, that calmed down my stomach), chest pain (most probably because of a strained pectoralis muscle and my possible reflux). Cramps in my calf is quite common, and nowadays vibrating sensation around my mouth. And of course, SOB. Regardless of what I'm doing, resting or exercising. I also can easily get stressed. I have coeliac, and even though I'm keeping the diet for 8 years now, I easily can have nutrition deficiency.
I didn't have serum mg checked, but my urine test came back with normal amount of Ca, b12 and iron. The last two I'm taking as a supplement.

Here's some info about acidity #2 talks about deep breathing.

I've also been trying to ramp up meditation. I've seen studies on the effects of meditation on the body. One benefit is that it counteracts acidity in the body's tissues, also detoxes and boosts immunity. They also found that it boosts substances that help fight off virus attack.
Count me in on that 🙂.

Ask your doctor about magnesium. I just switched to MagOx and It made a huge difference. You have to find the dose and brand of magnesium that works for you. For anyone desperate and not getting help from their doctors, focus on acidity. It's a common theme for all of us. I changed diet, used supplements etc. I'm very careful not to ingest anything that creates acidity in the body and use alkaline supplements...greens powders, alkaline water etc and it's made a huge difference. When all else fails, try deep breathing. If I feel a little heartburn ( which is a SOB trigger for some) I can deep breathe for just a few minutes and eradicate it.
Might not work for everyone but just wanted to share how I beat it.
Good luck everyone!
