    Hi Ann. I think I've had something similar. Mine was like a series of short staccato inhalations. I never discovered what caused it but I started to do a bit of cycling (I'm very unfit) and my breathing improved and I've rarely had it since. I wondered whether it was some kind of mild asthma but i have no idea really.
