In 2017, June.

I decided to decorate my bedroom and started with stripping the wallpaper(everything was fine no issues) then I started removing the old carpet, cutting it in squares to bag it up and take it to the trash but ever since I started cutting up the carpet and putting it in bags I started getting shortness of breath after the first two weeks, it was quite severe but then completely settled and ever since that moment from time to time, I get shortness of breath(like I can't catch my breath) but then it disappears and comes and goes 2018 was on and off and I'd go months without it then a few days in a month were I'd have a flare up and 2019 has been the same I haven't had it for long periods 6-8 months then a flare up before Christmas. I wonder what this could be?
