I would ask a gastroenterologist, or even a neurologist, they specialize in problems like this.

it depends is it stress related? if it is maybe? but if its nerves maybe they can play in the brain, honestly that is a great question! i have a paralized muscul above the stomach leading me to have perminate acid reflux, and they just tied my stomach around it! maybe they can attack a mecanical diaphragm to help u to breath! i dont know... im sorry god bless

I wish I knew.  I know someone who is dealing with one lung that became paralyzed.  I don't know if she even knows why.  She didn't do any of the bad habits that would be the usual culprits for lung disease, like smoking.  So, that wouldn't be it.

Are you dealing with Post Polio Syndrome?  That could be a cause.  I know of a cause but not of any cures.
