Short of breath & irratic sweats! Oh the fun :)
Seen my consultant yesterday as past 6 months have had worsening shortness of breath and sweats for no reason, both during the day and at night. My bloods remain stable, increasing, but at a predictable rate. I was sent for immediate chest X-ray but no results as yet. Consultant advised that even if

Another update - it looks like I won't be running for a bit longer yet :-(
Remember when I posted to say that I was pleased I'd been diagnosed with acute bronchitis? I had hoped that once that cleared I'd be back running again fairly quickly (well, not the running, 'cos I'm slow :D ). I went to the asthma clinic today. I knew that I hadn't really improved but was a bit shocked

What a year this has been. Considering that 13 is my lucky number!! I thought am I in denial? Always faced things faced on but struggling right now. To be honest, been struggling since first post and that's what makes me think am I getting it wrong. Diagnosed July 2013 with COPD after spirometry

Does/Has anyone else suffered from sporadic chest pains?
I have been suffering from random sharp sporadic chest pains in the middle of mychesg and often to the side near the middle of the rib cage. They are very random and more apparent when taking deep breathes and moving suddenly as well as laughing or yawning. I also have been suffering from Tachycardia

My afternoon in A&E
So I went to the GP who did a heart trace as I was getting chest pain as well as the stroke like symptoms. They sent me to A&E. Chest x ray fine, bloods ok - though my veins have collapsed due to APS and so I am covered in bruises from many blood test attempts. I had also passed a clot this morning -

Patient turned Doctor.
I've been around Doctors and ill people for a few years now to have picked up a thing or two. My sister-in-law and her boyfriend stayed with us over the weekend and he was complaining about breathlessness and the swelling around his ankles. To me these are the very familiar symptoms of lung or heart

Very Angry
Just thought I'd introduce myself and explain my situation. I was diagnosed last April with very mild COPD and Asthma. My Doctors put it down to passive smoking as I've never smoked. About the same time I was getting pains in my shoulder. I ignored them because they tended to go away and mainly occurred
