What Causes Extreme Shortness Of Breath And Excessive Sweating?
I have a very strange situation happing. Doctor and ENT have no idea what's happening, sending me to a allergist next. For the past 2 month or so I have common occurrences where I cant breath. It is like I am walking into group of smokers ( NOT SMELLING SMOKE) or walking into the perfume department at Macys and I just cant breathe or speak. This happens daily and it could last from 30 seconds to days. It's EXAUSTING. I have also noticed I am putting on belly fat without gaining weight and I seem to have extreme shortness of breath and very heavy sweating when working on strenuous projects. I am not one for complain so it is very hard for me to explain what issues I am having.

Hi Dear,
Understanding your concern.
As per your query you have symptoms of extreme shortness of breath and excessive sweating which is mainly due to hormonal changes , nervous problem or thyroid disease , its normal. Your symptoms will resolve with in 10-15 days once your metabolism will resume back to normal. Take diet rich in fruits , vegetables and drink plenty of water to prevent body from dehydration. I would suggest you to consult endocrinologist for thyroid or hormonal imbalance . Doctor may also refer you to neurologist .Take lemon juice as well along with salt and sugar added in it. The symptoms can also occur due to heart problem so also consult cardiologist .
Hope your concern has been resolved.
Best Wishes,
Dr. Harry Maheshwari
