What can i do with my breathing problem?
At the early age of 14 & until now, 20 years old i’ve been facing with breathing problems. I dont have any weight problems & i do have anxiety & gastric. I have to take a deep breath to breathe and i get tired easily even if i don’t do heavy work. I went to consultation , tapi jawapan yang sama i dapat, its all because of anxiety or angin. What else can i do to solve this problem?
