Wheezing

[Redruby7777]

Hi everyone

Long time no see! I have a question about wheezing. My steroid inhaler helps some. Still have a wheeze going on. This always happens in the winter, when air conditioner is off. Lots of cats isn't helping! Any thoughts on this?

Does your rescue inhaler help?

[Redruby7777 in reply to Tree20862]

Yes it does. I've put humidifier on in bedroom. Very dry. Only 23. Hoping that helps.

There are times when I use my rescue inhaler 2-3 time per day to help recovery from cat exposure or illness. It can help keep me off steroids.

With cooler temperatures it could be bronchospasms. Just a thought... hopefully you'll soon find out what's causing this and get some relief 😌

Here I am back. Now the humidity in my house is 48-50. No more wheezing! Before it was like 19-20! Weather is getting warmer, so heat not coming on. What does bronchospasms feel like?

Welcome back 🌞 chest tightness and wheezing are common with bronchospasms.

So tell me this..Have you ever had the cold air just setting in your chest. No trouble breathing, no pain. Like you drank an ice cold drink really fast.

[grannyk3 in reply to Redruby7777]

No, I don't recall ever feeling like that.

[Redruby7777 in reply to grannyk3]

I seem to be the only one! Lol.

Maybe so😏 one thing I've learned, lungs can do some weird things.
