Hey I know I’m a few years late to this post but I have been dealing with this for three steady years now, same exact thing you describe and was wondering if you found any solutions? I have been looking everywhere and am lost . It makes no sense :
Physically I am fine , I’m very fit and have had every possible test done and still I have this issue . Have you found anything to help ?

Hi @percyellz, you're definitely not late! This forum has become very popular because many other people are experiencing similar symptoms. What most have in common is that it's mysterious, and the general feeling of air hunger to varying degrees.

While I haven't found a solution, I have learned to manage it through breathing exercises and moderate daily exercise. I've also learned to breathe through my nose while doing normal every day things, but also while exercising.

Can you describe a bit more about what you're experiencing? Is this a shortness of breath that one would have during exercise, say? Or is it an air hunger where you can't seem to take a deep breath at times?
