Hello

I am sorry to start a new thread but I could not find a way of uploading a photo to my previous thread. I would be grateful for any help understanding these results.

Thanks

Frank

It all sounds pretty positive Phronsias2, having the heart scan is good and I hope that works out well also the neck scan.

Keep taking the inhalers as prescribed and hopefully your breathlessness will improve. What was your original lung diagnosis? Its really good no indication of bronchiectasis or cancer.

Best wishes

Hi

Thanks for your reply, I was told I had an unknown virus, I have an under active thyroid with a goitre the size of a golf ball but a bit flatter on the left side of my neck, I still find it difficult to catch my breath, and have phlegm in my throat,

Thanks again

Frank

So sorry Frank, it must be awful with the goitre I do hope you get some improvement with your breathing and phlegm, I guess when the doctors get your scan results back they will have a better idea what may or may not be causing the problem.

Not sure if covered this before but with the phlegm has the doc prescribed you with carbocisteine? if not perhaps ask for that and be sure to drink plenty of water.

Not sure if you want to try it but I sometimes use the Q New Era tissue salts homeopathic remedy for catarrh.

Best wishes BK
