Hi.
If your heart is fine a number of conditions need to be ruled out like restrictive lung disease, interstitial lung disease, COPD, etc. Make sure an elaborate evaluation is conducted and a diagnosis is established as that is the first step towards treatment.
Check to see if bronchodilators help.
Best wishes.
