Mysterious shortness of breath: What has helped you?

Hi Gabe, yes I get a satisfying deep breath about 1 in every 5-8 attempts. It is such a strange experience because after so many failed attempts I am not sure how I keep breathing. I am exploring a possible connection to a food allergy and using a steroid inhaler. I suspect hormones are involved.

Yeah that was my experience too. A satisfying breath ever few breaths but my breathing in general seemed to function normally, just not always having that satisfying feeling. Have you looked into any kind of breathing exercises? That's how I manage my condition, along with moderate exercise. Are you able to do physical activity?
