Does anyone else get really short of breath when fasting?

I am just coming up to 120 hours of fasting (of an intended 1000 hour fast to end around New Years) and I’ve noticed various physical effects, some of which I haven’t had previously.

Good effects:

Joint pain has gone down; I’ve seen this observation a lot here
Acne rosacea is healing rapidly

Weird things:

Really short of breath with even minimal physical activity. Is there some sort of histamine release or cholinergic effect of being in deep ketosis?
Extremely light sensitive, like even on an overcast day I have to squint or wear sunglasses

&#x200B;

Have any of you had the weird things? If so, is there anything you did that made them better?

Answer

Have you seen a long term impact on your acne rosacea or is this your first fast. I’m on my second round of the FMD. Mine clears up almost entirely but then comes back when I start eating again. I’m wondering if I should try a full fast. I’m using the Prolon kit right now.

Thank you!
