Pamela that sounds like me for sure.

At night I find my self having to open up my mouth and breath in a big breath just to get some air! And that would be shortlived.

For a long time during the DAYTIME, I would feel as if I wasn't getting any oxygen into my lungs. I would just breath in air so deep hoping it would help, but I never felt like I was getting enough. I just wonder if my oxygen is going down during the daytime??!!!

Also I have episodes during the day where my heart just beats so fast. Sometimes up to 150 RESTING. Just sitting around. That is probably my heart trying to compensate for my lungs.

I am SOOOOOOOOOO happy to finally get some help started. How many years do some people go through this and not have a Doctor that gives a crap??? I have been through SO MANY.

And do you believe it was a Physicians Assistant to my regular Doctor that finally listened to me????

I am going to bake him some cookies!! :)
