What Could Explain Shortness Of Breath And Sleeplessness Caused In Cold Climates?

Dear Sir, I suffer from shortness of breath during cloudy conditions and that causes me sleeplessness during night. And when there is winter I sleep a lot for more that 8-9 hrs and even with that much sleep, I do not feel fresh. Please suggest some remedy for this problem

Hello,

I had gone through the case and found that it might be due to-

Low respiratory function, so go for Pulmonary Function test(PFT) to check the proper study of respiratory system.

Also might be due to Sleep apnea, which causes slow oxygenation and sleeplessness. So go for Sleep study.

After getting the correct diagnosis take proper treatment.

Take care
