Does anyone else have episodes where you feel like you can’t take in a deep enough breath of air to satisfy you?? I don’t get it very often, but when I do, it drives me nuts!! I look like an idiot trying to breathe deep and it’s like it just stops! Ugh…
Yes...I have the same problem. I have noticed my breathing issues are worse on high humidity and hot days. I know how frustrating and concerning it can be when this happens. I have found that if I stand in front of the air conditioner, I'm able to breath a little easier. Also, hot humid showers/baths really set me off, so I've found if I take a cool shower that helps to keep it from starting. However, it could be my POTS that acts up after a shower so I'm not sure the same would help you, but it's worth a try. I hope you can find some relief for your breathing soon:) Take care.
I have had breathing problems since surgery last Oct.but haven’t gone back for my 1yr.check yet so I guess that I will find out what the is causing it later.You are not he first patient on the site that has had this issue.You probably need to get back to the NS.
I had them but mine was caused by CSF leak after decompression
I haven’t had surgery…yet? I have an appt with an NS on Aug. 28th. I guess I’ll find out then what they want to do…
I was told by my ns any swelling in that area will affect your breathing
Yes, I could have written your post word for word. So annoying, My husband always thinks I'm sighing but I am just trying to get oxygen!
