Indigestion and shortness of breath

Hi.

This isn't directly related to j-pouches but I'm wondering if you can actually have or get shortness of breath through indigestion.

I've been diagnosed with functional dyspepsia (although I have my doubts....) and lately, I've been experiencing shortness of breath, especially right at the throat.

At first, I thought it may be an asthma attack so I went to see my dr but he said that it's not coming from my asthma. He did a physical exam. I'm also not coughing and wheezing so it does make sense.

Which makes me wonder...if it's coming from indigestion or from this functional dyspepsia thingy.

Any comments would be appreciated.
