What To Do For The Shortness Of Breath Due To Weather?
Hello,
I am a 26 year old female. Since I have arrived in Calcutta, I have been experiencing shortness of breath. Where I come from it is not so cold, but I am finding the weather change difficult to cope with. The shortness of breath worsens at night, and makes it difficult for me to carry about daily activities such as walking extensively or climbing stairs.
I have been prescribed Avessa 250 as well as Doxofylline. However since I have started the medication, my acidity has increased so much that I cannot eat anything without experiencing gas.
My shortness of breath worsens when I have gas - what do I do???! And why am I experiencing breathing problems? I have a history of chronic allergic rhinitis. Is this connected?
