Full workup: A complete evaluation for shortness of breath in your age group (26) should include spirometry with and without bronchodilator and methacholine challenge, lung volumes, diffusing capacity, pulse oximetry at rest and with exercise, echocardiogram, d-dimer, BNP, CBC, TSH and possibly a 30 day event monitor, & treadmill stress test. Have all those studies been done?
