Sorry answering so late.you talked of breathing better laying down.That's when the diaphram works best.now if you stand up,,put one hand gentle on your chest the other on your diaphragm. 2 good breath in thru nose.exhale with pursed lips count 4 .if you can do this.your diaphram is good .your hand on your chest needs to be still.no up s and downs or your doing it wrong,OK?
Your doing really well to be able to lie flat. I have to sleep proped up on wedge. Hope you get some answers as to what wrong soon. I had to wait for years and go all round the country before I got answers as to what wrong with me. Then it was my own GP who figured it out!
I have very severe emphysema and I find it easier lying flat. If I get a bit breathless I find I can get back to normal quite quickly if I lie flat.
