Not sure what the drugs are for that you are taking. However LOW Iron is connected to air-hunger. Maybe ask for tests for Iron - B12 - Ferritin - Folate - VitD... All need to be at the top of their ranges and not JUST in range. Ask for copies to keep for your own records.....it is your right to have them.

Are you taking any supplements ?
