I've been having trouble sleeping for about 4 months now. It began with daily nightmares and not feeling rested, but lately, it's just that I'm not getting enough good rest. I checked my oxygen with an oximeter, and it dropped to 73. I've got an appointment at the end of the month for a sleep study consultation, but I'm wondering if I should go to urgent care instead. My symptoms are getting worse, and I'm barely managing. What do you think I should do?

View allI've been having trouble breathing for more than two months now, especially when I laugh or talk, and it feels like I'm out of breath easily. I went through an X-ray and a cardiac check, and both seem to be normal, but I'm still not sure what's causing it. Can you help me figure out what might be going on?
It sounds like you may be experiencing a form of anxiety or stress-related breathing difficulty, especially since both your X-ray and cardiac check are normal. It could also be related to muscle tension in the chest or diaphragm. I recommend consulting a respiratory specialist or considering breathing exercises to help manage this.
