You can get pulmonary rehab, a gradual exercise program meant to increase your lung capacity. Your doctor can refer you for pulmonary rehab. You should also find out if you need supplemental oxygen therapy, even if it is temporary. If your oxygen level is too low when you move around, it will be less likely to happen. See a lung doctor for full evaluation and pulmonary rehab referral. Good luck!
