HI Rose, it doesn't look like anyone has tried this and I've never heard of it😳 Had a read about it and looks like it's worth a try, can't do any harm as it was designed for this purpose. Have you had a look at our droopys post about breathing retraining coz this is very helpful for SOB. Just a thought, hope you're keeping well😊

Hiya rose, nope I've never heard of it..... I have never coughed since I quit and was never much of a cougher when I smoked either 🤔 

I do however have hyperventilation or over breathing. I still have my off days but it's definitely improving since I discovered that's what it was 😊😊

It can be anxiety related too.... Try the excerise and see if it helps you 😊 Good luck with it 😊
