Pulmonologist,  's  Response
Hello dear, thanks for your question on HCM.
I can understand your situation and problem.
In my opinion it is mostly due to acidity.
As levocetrizine can not cause breathing problem. Yawning problem can be due to levocetrizine as it is having mild sedative action and patient can feel lazy and yawns alot after it.
But mild breathing difficulty is mostly due to acidity.
So better to avoid stress and tension.
Avoid hot and spicy food.
Avoid large meals, instead take frequent small meals.
Start your antacid before meals.
Don't worry, you will be alright.
If you are not improving after 1 week then consult pulmonologist and get done PFT ( pulmonary function test ) for the diagnosis.
I find this answer helpful
