What Causes Difficulty In Breathing Leading To Dizziness?

Lately I've been having a hard time breathing out of now where.Its not that I can't breathe, it's that I can't get a full deep breathe, which in turn leads to me feeling very dizzy like I'm going to pass out. I'm 25 yr old female..I do not smoke and I just had a baby 6 months ago. My husband is currently deployed and I do not know what I wrong.

HI I can understand your concern.

Noted you are complaining you can't take full breath...

Here you have some social issue also .
So if you are taking excess stress then by panic attack such dyspnea can occur.
So if you are taking stress try to avoid it .
Regular exercise and yoga good for that.
You can take behavioural therapy for it...

Second if it is not stress related then I would suggest you to first get your respiratory examination from nose to larynx by rhinoscopy and larynhoscopy ...

Sometime this can be psychogenic cause .
So for that psychiatric consultation done.

Even if still cause not clear, to rule out restrictive disease pulmonary function test done...

Hope your concern solved....
