Mysterious shortness of breath: What has helped you?

Thank you. That is basically what the respiratory physiologist is telling me to do. She doesn't call it Buteyko but it sounds the same. She also is teaching me to try to swallow instead of taking the deep, yawning breath. Or to simply exhale. I have had a few good days and now I'm working on my sitting and standing inhales.. the lying down part is the easiest.
I have a device to check the oxygen levels and they are always fine.

I'm glad you are having more good days. It seems the breathing exercises and trying not to take a deep breath may be helping. That's good that your O2 levels are normal. That means there's the knowledge that you're getting enough oxygen in your blood. Let me know how it goes over the next few days and if there's further improvement.
