Hi Reggie
I have spoken to one of our nurses and we are a little unsure about the pain in your thighs/arm. We would advise having a chat with your doctor about this.
Did your increased breathlessness start suddenly? Have you spoken to your doctor about your breathlessness? This would probably be the best place to start.
Let us know how you get on!

Hi there jo thanks for replying, I have spoken to my cardiac nurse and an appointment is to be made for me at a time when my consultant dr haider is present, the breathlessness started when I come down with an infection prior to xmas I lost my voice(a god send to some friends) and the symptoms of a bad cold, dizziness and feeling low after 6 weeks my ex took me to my doctor and I was put on antibiotics and eye drops for conjuctivitus which I still have I have also had a mouth ulcer for about 2 weeks now, once I see my nurse I will keep you informed but generally I feel as though my disease is progressing
Thank you
brian

Hi Brian
Hopefully the appointment with Dr Haider will get to the bottom of this for you so you can start to feel better.
We are here if you need us!

Hope the doc's appointment helps. Meanwhile ensure you have plenty of fluids as dehydration can cause the leg problems and plenty of (non-alcoholic) drinks will do no harm.
Regards,
M
