Do you get really loud rumbling as well? Because I had this when I was anxious over the diagnosis and it was definitely wind caused by my being worked up.

It stopped when I calmed down. xx

I don't have a diagnosis (I just posted about getting a potential dagnosis) but I've had that sensation for a couple of years, I asked a doc about it once and he said the body does random things sometimes. Funny enough it was about then that the SOB up stairs started, I figured it was something to do with my weight and wrote it off at the time. I do wonder though.. I guess when I finaly do the spirometry test I will know

Shirls66. I get that sometimes. I refer to it as gurgly lungs. In my case it's caused by gunk in an area of a lung that needs to be moved up and out. It's usually expelled within a few hours.

I think I've had that Shirls. I wondered what it was at the time, felt a bit puzzling. Still no idea why, so can't help I'm afraid.

It could be !,,,,and I stress COULD BE ,a pocket of rubbish at the base of your lungs ,you could try doing the hough method to help move it ,,,,,if is is that ,,,you need to cough it up and out before it got infected ,,,,rubbish builds up in the base our lungs ,where the bugs breed because it's like a puddle down there,,,,cough And spit ,,,,,
