Two good days in a row !!
I've had two good days in a row and that's wonderful after all that shortness of breath . I am not strong like I use to be when I could push thru anything and keep going now it seems everything I do is taxing . Wens I have a doctor appointment I'm praying they give me xanex or valium , if ever I needed the help it's now ....panic attacks ..anxiety that I cant control .. I cant live with this kind of terror and the fear of another episode of the not knowing if I eat am I going to get extreamly short of breath or just skip food and breath .

Two good days in a row is a big win! I take lorazepam every day for my anxiety. It helps. Not being able to breathe is so scary. I hate the feeling. I am not used to it. And I have to pee so bad when that happens. Bleh. I just stop and do the pursed lip breathing thing. That helps. It\'s really all I can do. Hugs my friend!
Lorazepam is what my husband takes so he gives me some of his but they seem to not quit do the job , so tomorrow at two in the afternoon I have an appt. with a family doctor let cross fingers they \'ll be kind . I guess I\'m getting the hang of the dinner time blues I test the waters by taking two small bites if no shortness I eat if so I don\'t. YEP I use the pursed lips trick everyday now ! oh just to be clear those 2 good days was thanks to lorazepam , once I found out how much it helped I was on the phone calling my doctor Thanks for being my friend
Let me know how it goes with the doctor. I can eat okay in the morning and around noon. Not at night. I don\'t have the energy. So I eat twice a day. It works for me. This disease really sucks.
Idid go to the doctor they gave me valium 2mg , twice a day and they\'re making me see a shrink if I want these kind of drugs .....These doctors in Ohio really are just awful ! The worst thing is my dog died yesterday no reason I can see it looks like he was sleeping and just died ! He was only 8 years old and so so sweet I can stop crying Thanks 4 caring
