Hi there , I see your new to our lovely friendly group . Let me wish you a very warm welcome Yes I have to say i do suffer from breathlessness. I do have other breathing issues. I have had fibro for 35 years so not sure if it's really fibro related .

Yes I do but g.p. says chest sounds fine. Waste of time saying anything.

Sugarray....Ask your GP for a spirometry test. Your practice nurse should be able to do them. It is a very simple procedure and will soon eliminate other causes. In general terms fibromyalgia should not be blamed until all other causes have been ruled out.

Yes, it was one of my first symptoms I noticed. Do get your B12 checked though as it is far worse with low B12 ( called air hunger) and mention it to your GP as they can check your heart and lungs. I had all the hearts/ lung checks and although I feel short of breath it showed my lung function was actually very high for my age (99%).

Yes but due I think to the short breaths I take when I am struggling with pain. Welcome to the group think you will find a kind and understand group of fellow suffers.

Yes but not all the time but seems to come with the fatigue.

Yes, but I have never had a good breathing rate, I have an Ideopathic Asthma attack occasionally, and never had much in the way of tidal flow.

Yes I get out of breath to now but it's not my asthma because when I first got these symptoms it's when it started and my dad's death brought on fibromyalgia
