I’ve had bleeding. Pulmonologist thinks it could be my heating.

Anyone else have This?

I have severe copd. And find heating plays havoc with my breathing. If house to warm I dry out have to use inhalers. I have a fan heater on all night poor hubby does suffer for me.

I understand...I have a little of that too. I have asthma, do you? Sometimes I have to go outside to have fresh air to breathe

No asthma. Just serve copd. Wearing mask now to relieve c02 which I seem to get a build up. It helps to settle things down. Normally wear for 7/8 hours overnight but went to midnight Mass then up again for church. So didnt have enough time on my niv machine my breathing was terrible today but now seem to be settling.

What is the bleeding. What happens to you.

I’m so sorry you have to suffer with all that. The bleeding…… Before it happened with infection and also taking NSAIDs. But now it’s happening with the space heater in my new place.
