Ah, never mind. I'm getting scared, because I have a billion weird responses, from edema to gut issues to hair falling out to exhaustion...and my doc thinks it is no problem. So I'm searching for myself. Which probably isn't helping much.
Have you had your vitamin D checked. Mine was so low that I had breathing problems and no energy. My hair was falling out also. I took 10,000iu every second day (prescription) for 2 months. Finally started getting better. Once being diagnosed Celiac and avoiding gluten started to gain weight and get better. I take 5000 iu of vitamin D daily now. Hope you feel better.

My GI said he didn't think it was related, but I'm not convinced. When I was 19 I started noticing that I was often having to take deep breaths to feel like I was getting any air. Now at 25 I feel it all the time, every day, and it's more like I have to sigh or yawn in order to feel like my lungs are getting what they need. I know that I'm not suffocating but it's not a comfortable feeling. It's not exactly a chest tightness but it's similar. I've had the pulmonary function and asthma tests, even went to a cardiologist for a while to rule out any heart conditions. Everyone says my lungs are working great but I still feel like it's not getting any better. I did smoke for a long time but I quit a little over 2 years ago (2 years, 9 weeks, 0 days, 14 hours and 12 mins and saved $3,410.79.. .but who's counting?) but doctors have ruled out complications from that. They almost all default to anxiety because I have a prescription for Xanax but I can tell you that it happens all the time, regardless of feeling anxious.
Sound familiar to anyone, or should I keep looking? I'm starting to wonder if another allergy might be the cause.
Before I was confirmed Celiac I had breathing problems. Sent me for the lung test and apparently I passed. But now that I am on track seem to be ok. One thing that was wrong at the time was my vitamin D was dangerously low so put on 10,000 iu every second day and then I started feeling more like my old self . Try 4000iu a day and see if it stops.
