Feel shortness of breath at night
My oxygen level is 98 to 100% and BP is 120/74 but sometimes I feel at night that I am taking less breath or unable to breath despite oxymeter shows 99 to 100% and suddenly wake up at night. Now when I go for sleeping at night i have anxiety and fear that I am unable to breath despite breathing and constant fear. I have consulted doctor also and he recommended me to do chest x ray and lft test and he finds my reports are ok and recommended some medicine, but there is issue when I go for sleep i have constant thought and fear that i am short of breath and in reality I feel 10 to 15 seconds I am short of breath.
Please advice.
Thanks
