There are several factors other than x-Ray and saturation to be considered to assess breathlessness . Please consult a pulmonologist, physically or through teleconsultation to deal with it

Hi A spo2 of 95% is not normal. Normal SpO2 is 97% and above. I would need more clinical history regarding your breathlessness to give you a probable diagnosis.
