Mysterious shortness of breath: What has helped you?

Did your doctor do a chest x-ray? If not, I'd really recommend you get one. If the x-ray showed you have a raised lung, you could have a paralyzed diaphragm which manifests these symptoms. if you have a raised lung, your doctor should order a SNIFF test, which is the definitive test to see if you have a paralyzed diaphragm. I hope you will keep us posted.

I have just this week been diagnosed with paralysis of right side diaphragm. Also have atelectasis of right lung. About half of lung no functioning. Found thru lung X-ray. Get one as precaution!!!!
