Anyone have shortness of breath?

[worldofme]

Anyone here has shortness of breath that comes and goes?

Not sure if its my over weight or what but it sucks.

Its random and deep relaxation does help.

My chest x ray, ultra sound, heart size, heart stress test, Holter monitor all normal.

Rehum says no clue.

Any suggestions?

I have no clue either but I wonder if it’s worth seeing a pulmonologist (lung doctor)? Otherwise could it be anxiety?

Minocycline 100mg every other day with food...lots of food: Zydus brand. Celecoxib 200mg twice per day: Greenstone brand.

I experienced shortness of breath when I was first diagnosed. It was because I was severely anemic at the time.

For sure medications and supplements can cause shortness of breath. Also I have read an article and the author claims that shortness of breath can happen if your stomach is low in acid. If you want take apple cider before meals for 2-3 days and see if there is any difference. People use it also for acid reflux but that article was about low acidity.

RA tried everything: Methotraxate, Arava, Humira. Pneumonia three times. Anemia. Very low iron. Hypothyroidism
