I've been dealing with shortness of breath for the past year, and it's getting worse lately. It's gotten to the point where I'm out of breath just walking around my house. What could be causing this, and is it something I should be worried about?

View allI'm dealing with this issue for the past few days and it's got me a bit worried. I'm allergic and under treatment from my pulmonologist. I take montoluekast tablets and use an inhaler three times a day. Lately, though, I've been experiencing this odd sensation where my breathing feels heavy, or like I can't completely exhale. It only lasts about 10 to 15 minutes and then it's gone. I can do all my activities like walking briskly for half an hour and jogging in the morning. I also do pranayam breathing exercises almost every day. Do you think I should get tested for something specific? Could there be an issue with my lungs?
it might be due to your anxiety

I've been dealing with COPD and I'm also having this annoying post-nasal drip with a nonstop runny nose whenever I eat. At night, my throat gets all clogged up with phlegm, which makes it hard to sleep. I'm taking Glevo 500 daily and nebulizing with Duolin and Budecort every morning, plus just Duolin again at night. Montair LC every other day seems to help a bit. Do you think a nose drop like ipratropium bromide could help with these issues, or is there something else you'd recommend? The throat and nasal issues, along with slight wheezing or a rattling sound sometimes, are really bothering me. Any advice?
