> Hi Jan,
> I have those breathing problems also. It's mostly from anxiety. Also, my nose gets swollen up from allergies and I can't breathe through it. This adds to the problem and had me thinking that asthma was the issue. But I'm now on 25 mg. of doxepin and I don't have the breathing problems anymore. Of course there is an antihistaminic side to doxepin - but I still get the can't breathe out of my nose feeling sometimes so I think that the doxepin's effect on my anxiety is what is helping the most here.

That's real strange what you say about your nose.
My nose has been blocked most of my life. I was put on pills soon after birth as my nose was too stuffed up for me to feed..little blue pills...forget what they are called, but I suspect antihistamines of some form.
The ONLY time in my life my nose has not been stuffed was last year in England/Wales..got stuffed again about 30 mins after I arrived back thru customs in Oz.
I was thinking maybe its the eucalyptus tree oils..or maeleluca tree oils? I was also considering that for the first half of the 7 weeks or so in UK I was on doxycycline(jut an experiment to see about reducing antibodies etc) ..so maybe the antibiotic was helping there and just wore off..
but after what you say..maybe it is panic of some kind.
Strange though..
My Dad also has the stuffed nose all the time thing, but he breathes OK and can exercise just fine too
