Hi,
I am so worried about my Mum, every single day she paces around the house breathing in deeply saying I cant breath, but she is breathing. She say her lungs feel like she does not have enough air.
She went to the doctor who tested her for Asthma and told her she didnt have it. But after she has gone hours doing the deep breath cycle she does wheeze. And she bloats in the top of her rib cage, like something is trapped thereat the entrance to her stomach.
I dont know what triggers the need for her to keeping trying for that deep breath but she started at 10pm last night and was still doing it at 4 am this morning.
Could this be a form of Anxiety I need to understand whats going on so i can get her help.
Or could this be a mild form of Asthma.
She is getting to the stage now where she really does not want to go too far from home.
