How do you measure your breathlessness?

Dyspnoea scale - NICE guidelines

When we become breathless, most of the time we know why we felt the way we did. However, at times, we may feel breathlessness, which cannot be associated with the degree of exertion we have just performed. In such instances, it is likely that the breathlessness is associated with some kind of bodily disorder. If that is the case, breathlessness itself can be used as a measure of worsening or improvement of the said condition in most instances.
