Update on breathing problems.

It appears I have ataxia breathing caused by my diaphragm not working properly everyone I take a breath. If I am thinking about my breathing it is ok but try to do something else and it misbehaves. Am hypoxic but coping at present without any extra therapy ie Bipap or oxygen. Anyone else having similar issues.?
