Stuffy & stifled feeling

[tim73]

Okay, next one.

Basically sometimes, like right now, I get a stuffy/stifled feeling. It's hard to describe but I find often when indoors, pretty much anywhere now, I feel the place is stuff and I find breathing occasionally makes me slightly queezy or dizzy.

I get it more breathing through my nose than mouth. Go outdoors into fresh air and I'm fine.

I'm finding my nose is blocked or runny more often recently yet don't seem to have a cold, fever or anything else, and it's been going on for months. I'm not sure if it's always been like that though just I've only recently noticed.

Guess I could have a general sinus issue. I could go back to the doctor yet again to discuss it but all I get now is "oh, it's just anxiety" or get treated for something else (e.g. nausea feelings got me on stuff for stomach acid/ulcers but I don't think that was the problem).

Oh, and I get it more after going out for exercise (e.g. riding my bike), but I wonder if it's because I'm going from outdoors to indoors.

Anyone else get this?
