Shortness of breath ONLY. No cough, wheezing or phlegm

I experience shortness of breath, the "need" to consciously take in deeper breaths of air - the involuntary function of breathing is out of whack. Some days, the issue causes me to take very deep breaths of air. I can feel something tight in my mid chest preventing normal inhalation. Maybe my bronchioles are inflamed/constricted? I feel the issue is worse when exercising, during which I find it very uncomfortable to breath (need to take very deep breaths). Lungs do not get filled out. My allergist tells me it's either anxiety related (which I refuse to believe) or a dust mite allergy. I have 2 HEPA air purifiers running 24/7 and even vacuum my place every day (to stop mites).
I am a fit person that consumes a healthy vegan diet and so I doubt food has anything to do with my issue.

Although probably unrelated I had LPR (silent reflux) until 4 months ago which was confirmed through an laryngoscope (endoscopy) - m y throat was inflamed.

PLEASE help me regarding my breathing difficulty issue, I have tried the allopathic inhalers but to no avail.

Possible culprits:
1. Dust mites
2. Hypoacidity causing GERD/LPR
3. Food allergy (low probability)

28.Any other things which you think it make you unique from others ..
ANS: Yes - does NOT seem like full fledged asthma because I get absolutely NO cough, phlegm, sneezing, itching (eyes of throat) or wheezing. It seems like the auto-pilot mode of my respiratory tract is a out of whack possibly due to allergic reaction to dust mites (tested positive) - although I have 2 HEPA purifiers and vacuum regularly to take care of that. Something is causing my bronchioles to constrict and cause me to consciously breath deeply every few mins.

THANK YOU for helping me! Very grateful!

Thanks for the advice. I went for a full consultation with a homeopathic doctor and he prescribed me staphasagria 200c, twice a day and to do a full detox (using basic kit) since I have other issues like acne, eczema and GERD/LPR possibly causing breathing issue. He says rhus tox may not be right for me because I feel worse upon exertion. Can you please kindly comment. Just wanted to get 2 opinions before I get myself the remedies.

in homeopathy,you will find different doctors prescribe medicines differently,you can see that in this forum too..i do not mean they are wrong.they are prescribing out of their experience.so,what i am trying to say is,if you got one prescription from one doctor,please take it as he suggested,if not helping or getting worse means you can ask other doc's opinion.if you are prescribed staphy 200c,forget my prescriptionn and take staphy and report changes here too.i hope youu understood.
