Does anyone while having a flare up experience times when it’s hard to breathe after doing something very simple? I can feed my dog or even drying off from the shower and start breathing very heavy like I’ve just run a couple of miles.

    Yes. From the beginning which is 15 yrs.

    It's not like Ashma its just a no breath feeling.

    Hope this helps you not to worry.or panic.

    Yes in the early stages especially.

    I believe lack of oxygen.

    Try ventilating room and deep breathing exercises.

    It can be distressing. Hope you feel better soon.

    Yes I have had this the last two years while I have been progressing in my fibro (was finally diagnosed last month) and it seems to be getting worse. I will get winded at the smallest things and it takes a while to get my breath back.

    Hope you get some relief and if you find anything that helps let me know.

    Hope you have a blessed daysmile
