Lowered ability to breathe, will lower oxygen to your body, and therefore also your nerves will suffer.

I'd try the inhaler...the doctor probably wants to see if airway inflammation is the the culprit. If it does not help, that tells the doctor something, as well.
Oh, I just remember, when the staff assistant got the oxygen level (the one they clip in your finger), mine was 99. She did not comment, nor I asked if that was normal. I used to be so inquisitive about results and numbers...I dont know...
