Hi all so been struggling with some breathlessness for a while now. Even at rest it's so scary :(. Had many tests. Mris, xrays, ct scans l, echo, heart monitors, seen a cardiologist. Everything all keeps coming back normal apart from low ferritin 14, low folate 3.7 (up from 2 something) low vit d 34 (up from 21) low transferrin at 11,% lower end b12 247
Could it really be those things causing this? Have alot of other symptoms too and it's causing me the worst anxiety. Just scared I'm going to die. I always feel that feelinf like when you're about to hyperventilate:( have been given an iron liquid which I've been taking for 2 weeks but drs said rest all normal and to just take a vit d spray 1000iu a day over the counter (did have 6 week treatment before which took me from 21 to 34)

Hi I too have been breathless and lightheaded for a long time. Not resting though but after very little movement.

Recent ecg. 24 hour ecg, echocardiogram all clear. Just had bloods taken on Friday

im convinced mine is due to stress and I am shallow breathing, I’m trying to train myself to deep breathe
