Mysterious shortness of breath: What has helped you?

It's obviously been a few years since this was posted. Is there any update? I've been in the ER twice since Aug (2021) with a mysterious onset of SOB in the form of air hunger and no tests so far figuring out what's causing it. All tests are normal.
I'm miserable and can't even drive anymore because I get so lightheaded from this.
I'm only 31
A friend of mine mentioned maybe it could be CIRS, has anyone ventured that route?

Hi @okfaith7, glad you found us. Though the original post hasn’t been updated, the comments section itself is very active, so people have updated in the form of comments.
Was asthma one of the things that was tested for with you? Also, did you get any bloodwork done to check for any nutrient deficiencies? These might be some quick checks to rule anything out.
In the meantime you could attempt to control your breathing as much as possible. Years ago when this started for me, I did controlled breathing through my nose and it helped a great deal.
