Shortness of breathe (dyspnea) occurs when you are trying too hard to breathe and there is a feeling that you need to breathe deeper and faster due to shortage of oxygen. It is usually experienced if you are living with COPD, asthma or lung disorders. However, if you experience the same post eating then you may have a food allergy, GERD, hiatus hernia or mild to severe respiratory conditions. Consider consulting a pulmonologist if you suffer from frequent breathelessness post meals.
A hematology analyzer measures hemoglobin via a colorimetric method. It works by a system based on the principle of reflectance photometry. Diluted blood is mixed with reagents containing potassium ferricyanide and potassium cynide.
Anemia causes shortness of breathe because the oxygen carrying capacity of cells decreases and this results in rapid heartbeats and breathelessness.

Nerve damage or trauma to the head and neck can affect the nerves that provide sensation to the mouth and result in a feeling of dry mouth. Shortness of breath may be caused by a panic attack, or anxiety, which can cause dry mouth.
