    Hi @shafin - & welcome to the community from me too. I'm sorry to read about your medical problems, which must be difficult to deal with. I don't have your problems, but there may be others who struggle with breathlessness on exertion from other disorders who may be able to relate. Have you had to stop your job, or having understandable difficulty with this?
