yep - also can't be bothered to eat because it's just too much flipping effort and I get too tired.
i have recently become quite breathless after food and end up having ridiculous coughing fits that can last up to 3hrs ! it is very annoying i have no idea what causes this but i would like to find out. hope you are feeling better vsoon love and hugs

Yes, this happens to me too
I can't eat if the asthma is playing up. I wonder why that is? Are they related?

I also get really out of breath after eating or drinking something hot. Doesn't stop me though! ; )

i get this, i usually just find a long programme to watch (as distraction) and eat really slowly, away from other people who will feel like they're pressuting me to hurry up. i also try to have small frequent meals so i dont feel tight chested because im full.
Thanks for replys. Glad its not just me xxx
I must admit that I seem to get short of breath following meals, I now try to time my nebs to coincide with this. The trouble is that I am also a greedy fat git (and on preds) so I can't stop eating 
I eat lots of yogurts and was eating around 5 apples a day as love them and done so for years.
but one day had a really bad attack last year after forgetting wash my apple first so have cut then
down to odd one now and then but not made any difference .
Going have to be careful if con keeps me on pred as i get the munchies also on pred xxx
drink plenty of water ur probably hydrated
