As far as the breathing difficulty, it’s called dyspnea. It started with a lot of yawning, then it became like I couldn't get enough air. Then the anxiety started (probably from the feeling like I couldn't breathe).

It was much worse at night. It took about two months to clear up completely after stopping everything (I didn't discover why until much later, so I went almost vegan straight edge for those two months). Didn't give up gluten, should have.

After a while of water and vegan, I took 5-htp to get to sleep and reduce anxiety. It helped a lot.

My doctor gave me the same inhaler some of you were given. It helped. I am not sure if it really “helped” or if it was psychosomatic. Probably a bit of both.

Woah....mine only happens at night, too. Not even when I'm laying down either, just at nightime. The yawning fits in too. Did you burp up air?

Oddly enough my response to it was the same lol....stopped smoking and eating redmeat. What the hell is 5-htp?

But yeah just having the inhaler gives me some peace of mind, haven't had to use it yet, but just having it makes me feel better.

Thanks for your post! PM *should* help with some of your issues, and if the AA gives you problems, remember tagamet may be enough on its own.
