This is a surrogate post on behalf of a relative who has a login here, but it's proving difficult to access as it was done through my email address -
For the last several days I have had the sensation of not getting enough air. It's very scary, and makes me want to keep gulping or yawning.
Luckily I have a blood O2 meter here, which oddly shows my oxygen levels at 96-99% all the time which is some relief.
The constant air hunger is hard to cope with though, is it possible it's all in my head, or caused by stress? I can understand it happening during a panic attack (which I've experienced before), but to have it all the time is worrying. Will it go away?
