Pulmonologist,  's  Response
Thanks for your question on Healthcare Magic.
I can understand your concern.
In my opinion, we should definitely rule out obstructive Airway disease (OAD) in your case for your symptoms.
So consult pulmonologist and get done clinical examination of respiratory system and PFT (Pulmonary Function Test).
If PFT is showing obstructive defect then you will mostly improve with inhaled bronchodilators (formoterol or salmeterol).
Don't worry, you will be alright with all these.
Avoid stress and tension, be relax and calm.
Hope I have solved your query. I will be happy to help you further. Wish you good health. Thanks.
