Re: HI

I hope your breathing is manageable, or that you have medications which help at least.

OMG that is awful for you.
I cannot understand hospitals sometimes, why did they not contact the specialist when you were an inpatient.
Keep us all updated please.

Re: HI

Deylon, did the Hospital not do Lung Breathing Tests on you?

My GP had been treating for Asthma for many years and it wasn't improving so he sent me to the Lung Specialist, which I did loads of tests there and their computer read out that I had COPD, so I have a special Spray and Tablets for it.

Good luck.

Re: HI

sorry to hear you are still unwell Deylon, I hope the hospital can find out what the matter is quickly. It's horrible when we are unable to breathe, I've recently been diagnosed with COPD and have inhalers. Good luck xxx

Re: HI

Hi Deylon good to see you back. I hope they can discover the cause of your breathing problem so you can get some treatment.

I know how scary it can be when you can't breathe properly, it can make you feel panicky .I find relaxation techniques and measured breathing exercises can help

My thoughts too, Susie. Poor you Deylon.
Hard to believe they had you in hospital for two weeks and they didn't do these tests while they had you there.

I hope you get sorted out soon.
