Maybe you should get an opinion from a gastroenterologist or stomach intestinal specialist!. They may be able to find something the other docs haven't!. Good luck!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
I think it's time to see a pulmonologist, a doc that specializes in the lungs and airways!.
If the pulmonologist rules out any lung problems, I'm sure you'll be referred to someone who can give you a definitive diagnosis!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Have you been checked for a blood clot in your lungs!? That can cause what you describe!.
Do you have any food allergies, because they can cause shortness of breath!?
Do you exercise, or are you out of shape!? I've foound that when I get exercise, I feel better!.
As far as anxiety, zantac is for your stomach, not for anxiety!. Xanax is for anxiety!.
And, yes, that can cause not getting deep breaths of air, but usually you can get one good one, then a few minutes of not, then another good one!. You sound like you can never get a good breath!.
I would have an xray with dye to make sure this isn't a blood clot!. Not to scare you, but since it's not any of the other things!. Also, I would have allergy testing done!. Good luck finding out something!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
