Mysterious shortness of breath: What has helped you?

Hi @glenjr, that's interesting that it feels like it's only on one side. I've never heard of that before. I would've thought that even if one side is restricted the the other or both lungs would compensate for that. Does it feel like a sharp sudden stitch when taking in a breath or is it more a softer restriction?

@gabrielm Thanks for replying! I'd say more of a softer restriction, almost like something is preventing it from expanding or something is blocking the air from getting in. I've been to the ER where everything (blood tests, oxygen levels, x-rays) came out normal. My doctor prescribed albuterol which didn't help. I did test for H Pylori recently and it came out positive. Just started antibiotic treatment for that so we'll see if that helps.
