ive had trouble breathing for the last several months. i do not have shortness of breath, but i do feel like my right lung is not functioning properly. when i wake up in the morning i can breathe normally until i sit up in the bed and then i dont feel comfortable the rest of the day or ever feel like i have the satisfaction of a completed breath until i wake up again the next morning.

my blood levels, xrays and other exams including a ct scan to look for blood clots have come back clear. i suspect the issue is due go nerve damage but i am hoping someone can provide some insight as to where to look next for a treatable diagnosis. i have already tried steroids, inhalers, several allergy medicines and anti-inflamatories to no avail.

    It sounds like you have dysfunctional breathing, have you seen a breathing physio?

    Also have you had heart examinations? It may be a cardiac issue.
