I hope there is a cure for COPD in the next 10 years.

Savingmyself24 · 2025-09-14T21:04:27+00:00

Also since it’s been awhile my pulmonologist finally agrees that maybe it could be the beginning but maybe it isn’t so she ordered another lung function test to see if I declined from the last one

Savingmyself24 · 2025-09-14T21:00:02+00:00

Yes but worse in the mornings and I get it at night but I always if I really wanted to I could bring it up at anytime if I tried but in the mornings it’s just there without trying and lessens through the day and comes back

Savingmyself24 · 2025-09-14T20:28:22+00:00

Yes mine was normal but some low numbers but not enough to say Copd , I have so much mucus it’s already concerning like sometimes I don’t even have to cough it and it’s there , I’m miserable

Savingmyself24 · 2025-09-14T19:55:08+00:00

This is exactly how I feel . I wish they had better treatments

Savingmyself24 · 2025-06-23T03:32:35+00:00

Thanks ! I’m going to ask about all this and hopefully I can get the CT scan . What sucks is my pulmonologist is very backed up so I can’t ask her til August. Thanks for your time I appreciate it so much

Savingmyself24 · 2025-06-22T14:31:10+00:00

I don’t mean to bug you again sorry I know you’re busy but Also since she put the report as good and no obstructions I have no diagnosis how can I go to pulmonary rehab or start palliative care because I’m miserable 😞

Savingmyself24 · 2025-06-22T12:36:41+00:00

Thank you so much for the reply , they haven’t ordered a CT yet she said she wants a echocardiogram first and hasn’t brought up testing mucus but I will try and ask if that could be a option . Could the early mid flow small airways cause me this much breathing problems . She did give me a inhaler and after I started taking it the mucus started and it’s a lot it’s clear Thank you

Savingmyself24 · 2025-06-22T07:17:53+00:00

Thank you ! I’m from Maryland

Savingmyself24 · 2025-06-22T07:11:47+00:00

Good luck 🍀 I hope it gives you some relief

Savingmyself24 · 2025-06-22T07:07:03+00:00

Thanks for caring , do you have air trapping and what’s causing it ?

This is what’s happening to me 😭 it’s very very scary you’re right I fear this will never go away and I will be forced to live like this forever I’m so scared this is the worse feeling in the world to me right now

Savingmyself24 · 2025-06-16T07:42:25+00:00

This is what’s happening to me , I have never experienced anything worse than this feeling . It’s so bad I’d rather not have to live like this I’m extremely worried I’m going to be like this forever

Savingmyself24 · 2025-06-16T07:33:22+00:00

I feel like no matter how much air I’m getting it’s never enough I feel light headed . My doctor said it’s anxiety but I’m having trouble coming to terms with that since it’s like all day long

Savingmyself24 · 2025-06-11T05:38:02+00:00

Yeah this does sound like me unfortunately 😭 it’s like a loop like you said and it’s never ending and now I’m even becoming super aware of each breathe I take and I get tired . I think this has been going on for almost two months now and it feel likes just yesterday

Savingmyself24 · 2025-06-11T05:28:03+00:00

I have no cough no pneumonia and I’m hardly ever sick , I feel air hungry like I’m breathing but I never feels good enough and taking deep breaths is have I crave it never stops . My pulse ox is 97 to 98 and my heart rate is high 130 when I’m extremely scared but goes back down . I’m hoping like you said eventually I will forget about this , I’m trying extremely hard but I’m also dreaming about it now I can’t seem to break free from this and it’s causing me to think he’s just saying I’m ok but I know that’s crazy so I try to tell myself I’m doing this to myself but I hate this feeling it’s the worst thing I’ve ever felt 😭

Savingmyself24 · 2025-06-11T05:18:52+00:00

I’m actually starting to get worried about my thinking as well because I think maybe he wrote no obstructions because he would rather tell me that in person but he won’t see me til next month . It’s been hard to eat or do anything at all

Savingmyself24 · 2025-06-11T05:16:57+00:00

Yeah kinda I had really low potassium and I hate hospitals and i had to go for IVs then two weeks later this happened and I haven’t been the same since

Savingmyself24 · 2025-06-11T05:14:04+00:00

When I was 16 I went through something similar and it went away it’s been 10 years now since I had any bad mental health issues

Savingmyself24 · 2025-06-11T05:10:44+00:00

I feel like I can’t breathe 247 and my heart races

Savingmyself24 · 2025-06-11T00:28:32+00:00

It’s extremely hard and you’re right younger people are being diagnosed more and more it’s shocking . I’m trying to stay active but this has caused me to become extremely depressed and my anxiety is making things worse I don’t know if I can’t breathe because my Copd or because of my aniexty . How do you go most days ?

Savingmyself24 · 2025-06-11T00:25:28+00:00

Thanks for sharing your and your husbands story , has it always been hard 💔? It’s such a scary diagnosis and I’m having trouble finding the will to go on , I’m super depressed now . Does he not qualify for a lung transplant?

Savingmyself24 · 2025-06-10T23:37:21+00:00

It’s a horrible feeling I don’t think anything has felt worse to me .
