Breathlessness
So at times I get breathlessness and my chest becomes tight and stomach feels like there is no air inside I had been to a doc they took the IOS test and said the lungs are fine and there is a small difference between before and after taking inhaler . I am also on anxiety medication and she has now recommended Cipla f inhaler a steroid version sometimes the inhaler helps but sometimes it doesn't and the anxiety medicine does not help in reducing the breathlessness . What could it be is it asthama or anxiety ? I have been to many doctors and now I am confused !

Taking crushed Pulmoclear with water
I am completely unable to sit up, and I cannot even sit in a slightly inclined position.
I am taking Pulmoclear tablets, but I am unable to swallow them because I am lying completely flat.
So I crush the tablet and mix it with water before drinking it.
Is it okay to take it that way?

Asthma or not?
37F seeking a second pulmonology opinion. For 5-6 months I’ve had intermittent dry cough, air hunger, chest tightness/heaviness, mild breathlessness while talking, and upper back ache. Triggers include dust, incense smoke, and cold air; warm humid air helps. Occasional wheeze on forced exhalation. Slight nagging pain at back between the shoulder blades is also there. I also have hoarseness, voice fatigue, reduced singing ability, and a history of reflux. Pulmonologist suspects CVA...but is it possible to have asthma when all reports are normal? Including Ige?
Please suggest as though I'm on treatment, I'm clueless on what's wrong with me ...
Feno result is 17. Attaching pft report .

Breathing issue
For the last 20 days I have had a breathing/inhaling discomfort where I feel unable to take a fully satisfying deep breath. It is worse in hot and humid weather and improves in AC. Symptoms are usually less in the morning and at night. This started after a few panic/anxiety episodes about a month ago, for which my doctor prescribed Nexito 10 and Zapiz 0.5. Even when I don't feel anxious, the breathing issue can still occur, although it makes me anxious when it happens. ECG was normal except sinus tachycardia. CBC, sodium, potassium and TSH were normal, CRP was 21 and ESR was 12. I also have mildly elevated liver enzymes. Two doctors examined my lungs and said they sound clear. Could this be anxiety-related or does it suggest a lung problem?

Air hunger, breathlessness, cough
I'm 37y old woman. since last dec I have had intermittent cough, and over the last few weeks have developed episodes of air hunger/unsatisfied deep breath, chest heaviness/tightness (especially over the sternum), and occasional breathlessness while talking or after exertion. I also have a persistent upper back ache between the shoulder blades that often precedes the air-hunger sensation.
Symptoms are triggered by dust, incense smoke, cold/chilly air and temperature changes. Warm humid air feels more comfortable. I occasionally notice wheeze on forced exhalation. Cough is mostly dry with very little sputum; once or twice I coughed up a tiny amount of thick light-yellow mucus.
I also have hoarseness, reduced singing ability and reflux/acidity symptoms sometimes. CBC and IgE are normal; Vitamin D is low. ENT suspected allergic bronchitis/CVA and started Foracort Rotahaler, with partial improvement in cough and some episodes of chest tightness... what could it be?
