if im reading it correctly [i'm drugged up big time], the weird noise happens if u breathe in too far/too fast, or at least thats how nurse explained it to me when she got spacer sorted out.

Thanks Emma,

Hope you feel better soon and get out of hospital xxxx

Hope i dont get captured having a bad splat xxx

The noise happens if you are breathing too hard or fast. You need to use tidal breathing with the aerochamber. It's a good way of slowing your breathing down when unwell but I find sometimes it's just a bit much when unwell and I can't help it making a noise. Breathe calmly and slowly through it and you should be fine.

Thanks Fee xxx thought I would join a band or go busking with it hahaha xxx

still puffed out so resting on sofa xxx
