Mysterious shortness of breath: What has helped you?

Holy crap. I have been going through this all of my life and this is the first time I’ve ever heard anyone describe it. The yawning, the sighing, the effort to get that deeeep breath that won’t come….omg. Like you, my PFT was perfect. I know I have reflux, but I haven’t always had it and this has literally been going on ALL OF MY LIFE.

So sorry to hear it's been going on for so long. Has it been consistent symptoms or sensations throughout, or does it come with varying degrees of severity?
I haven't seen whole lot on diaphragm issues, but like you mentioned in your second comment I think some people have described the possibility of diaphragm paralysis but haven't seen much info from people on if they found out if they had that or if any treatments worked. But it sounds like something worth being looked at for just to at least rule it out.
