I have YES and gastro specialists. We've been left in confusion because I certainly have LPR but there's are signs of asthma too like hyperinflated lungs, they just aren't typical signs....
Excellent I'll go through as many treatments as possible, thank you! I did think of something my pharmacist just mentionned today. He said Ventolin helps untighten the chest from anxiety. Is that...
Yes please. I do hope this isn't asthma because I've lost a lot of relatives to similar illnesses sadly. Anxiety meds don't really help me but I'll certainly try excercises!...
Had a very scary night last night. My thoughts were racing, my chest tightened up like someone was lifting it, I couldn't exhale fully and I kept waking up for air. On the off chance I took 2 puffs...
Things that point to asthma: - Short of breath - SPO2 drops when involuntary gasping. - Tight chest/back especially when lying flat. - Night gasping - Relieved by warmth and teas with bronchodilator...
Does anyone else with anxiety have a chronic stuffy nose? When I am stressed and adrenaline is running through me, my nose opens up dramatically, but in exchange I feel tired and my sinuses hurt....
I'm having great difficulty in finding a diet to help my lpr I can stick with because it's imcredibly restrictive and destructive to my body. I need to return to my old diet to counter my very low...
Afraid not. Still continuing. I haven't slept for weeks, eaten properly and my chores pile up. What do I do to get the docs to listen?...
SC, They gave me an anthistamine and an asthma inhaler just in case but neither have helped. My oxygen has been continuously low now. They said because there's a way to recover my oxygen there's...
Sorry to bump this post but I'm getting much worse. I can't move or sleep or eat because my oxygen saturation is stupidly low unless I REALLY force air in. My head hurts, I become tired fast, my...
SC, thank you for your replies so far! Asthma copd and cancers have been ruled out and my heart is ok. Had a sleep study too but it was inconclusive; the test didn't show much but i have an app with...
D SC I have been attempting to prove the existence of a breathing condition to my gp as they cannot catch it in the act. It started out fairly manageable but has reached a point where I have days I...
I know many people with anxiety overbreath and hyperventilate but is it possible to breathe too little when anxious? My oxygen readings keep dropping fast on my finger reader; they shoot up again if...
How do i tell the difference? I can't deny my shortness of breath (low oxygen sats) gets worse the day after I eat some bad foods, but there isn't a pattern as to what sets me off. Gaviscon Advance...
My resting pulse is about 60, but if I have breathing trouble it can break 120 at rest....
I'm trying to prove to a doctor i have genuine shortness of breath, so I bought a reputable pulse oximetry device and got help in making sure my results are real. So it goes on my pinkie finger, or...
Maybe from the foods we eat or from natural reflux? I have been chasing a diagnosis for a long time, but we may need to rule out lpr; the Gaviscon Advance I take frequently should be working by...
Hello and thank you. It feels very real, and I have turned blue from it before. I don't know if it happens in anxiety? I have one of those finger oxygen readers which shows i really do lose oxygen,...
Does anyone else get this? My chest tightens up too when breathing gets harder, but I have difficulty swallowing and breathing when my jaw goes inwards and tight. I'm gagging on my own tongue and...
