I am sorry you are going through this. Have you tried swimming? Sometimes that can help with breathing issues. https://www.usms.org/fitness-and-training/articles-and-videos/articles/5-reasons-why-swimming-is-great-for-lung-health. Swimming has helped me. I had undiagnosed severe asthma until two years ago and swimming was one thing that helped me.

Also have you tried a nebulizer? That can also help with SOB. Also do you regularly check your oxygen? You can get a device at Walgreens that you put on your finger to check.

Hope you get answers.

I have not tried swimming. I have never learned to properly swim, only dog paddle. No doctor has found anything wrong with my lungs and I'm assuming ? it's not asthma but what test finally diagnosed you with severe asthma?
I am doing diaphragm strengthing exercises. The nebulizers haven't worked.
I have that device and it's never shown that my levels were below normal.
Thank you!
