Hi @kka, how are your symptoms? I know you had Covid sometime last year and you also posited that your breathing issue could also be from acid reflux. Has your breathing improved since then?

Hi @gabrielm

That's nice you remembered. I stopped taking the acid reflux meds ( didn't want to continue them for long term) and I started noticing the breathing issue again. However, even when I was taking the meds, I'm not sure if my breathing actually changed or if I just stopped noticing it because my acid reflux wasn't bothering me as much. That's why I'm wondering for those that say they have had this issue "on and off", do they mean that they just stopped noticing it for some time period (maybe distracted by something else) or did their breathing actually change? Here is an interesting article that claims that this issue could be psychological caused by a number of triggers:
