I have it almost constantly.  Shortness of breath is on and off, but more so when I have the edema in the abdomen area.  Happens worse shortly after eating.  I try to eat smaller meals now.

I have had the edema on and off, and my Endo used to check my ankles when I had an office visit, so with Hashi's it is common, although I have not had shortness of breath. Good Luck FTB4
