Respiratory problems

Hi. I have lupus, APS and secondary Sjögrens. Since having pneumonia 3 years ago I’ve had a constant productive cough although recent chest X-ray looks fine. Waiting for lung function tests now. Has anyone else with the same conditions developed respiratory problems ?

Hi I started with respiratory problems first An all started when I had double pneumonia when I was 2,I was constantly in an out of Hospital until they discovered I had an immune deficiency and later started to get joint problems an damage showing up on scans ect apparently Bronchectisis which is the lung disease I have can cause joint/muscle problems so maybe your chest condition is related to your lupus and other diseases hope that they are able to treat you quickly and you get better An relief from your chest problems soon
