Mysterious shortness of breath: What has helped you?

Please get an X-ray and possibly MRI if can of your spine. I was short of breath upon minimal exertion for 91/2 years due to a pinched nerve at C5/6. I do have this other ‘trying to get a breath’ sometimes here and there during a day and I’m wondering if it might be a pinched nerve as well since I have had extensive testing of everything for years and I’m ‘normal’;) just an observation that’s easy to check out. Good luck !

Hello,

I have already done it, too. I got an MRI scan of my entire spine (lower back, chest segment and neck). Although there definitely were some problems, neurologist told me it wasn't that bad. I think I should get a second opinion about it.

Have you fixed your problem with a pinched nerve? If yes, how did you do it?
