Breathlessness in the periods

Hi, I got breathlessness in May for almost 10 days. This episode happened just before my period started and continued for 10 days. After that, the uncomfortable breathing patterns subsided. This month again, i have got the same breathlessness just before my period started i.e 19th June. Is there anything related to hormones or something else? What should I do?

Rice in lungs

Yesterday while eating, I felt like a grain of rice was going into wind pipe, I didn't get cough but I immediately adjusted. But I was doubtful that what if that grain of rice went into my lungs. While reading online, it has mentioned tat we will get cough and gag reflux. But I did t get any of these signs and symptoms. So, I voluntarily coughed and vomited some food. Now, I have mild chest tightness at the centre of my chest. I have GERD problem. So, I often get this type of symptoms. Now I don't have cough or breathing difficulties. But I'm still afraid whether rice would have gone inside my lungs. Should I take x-ray. I'm worried. Please advise.
