I've been tested for covid, had 2 shots, been to hematologist, all fine, could it be that i need diaphragm stimulation, i can breathe in but more effort to push air out?

You may wish to consult a lung specialist, a pulmonologist. There is not standard therapy for diaphragm stimulation. Wish you good health!

Sit in a quiet spot and take slow deep breaths in and out and not to try to force breath out. You do not need any stimulation of any sort. Good luck
