Over the weekend my breathing has become pretty normal. I did 15 minutes at about a 3.0 on the treadmill yesterday and 20 today. My breathing was good. I am going up and down the stairs and same thing. Yesterday was 68% humidity and I was much better outside than I was for the past 3 weeks.

What does this mean?

Probably not pulmonary hypertension or fluid around my heart right? That can't be intermittent can it?
I am not coughing anymore either.
Does it sound more like bronchitis? With no fever? Asthma? Maybe bizarre autonomic symptoms that fluctuate?

I also think this pulmonary testing is going to be a complete waste especially since this lady is opposed to thinking I should show her what is happening- and it isn't happening right now anyway.

Yes, I think intermittent is a good sign. Something was irritating your lungs... pollen or mold spores.

I hope you continue to improve with this, therefore.

Yes, intermittent improvement is often a good sign.
Wishing you a full recovery.
