Respitory symptoms undiagnosed after gardening

Posted , 2 users are following.

one month ago I planted a tree. Immediately afterwards it has been hard to breathe. a tight feeling in my windpipe and I can hear myself wheez when I breathe out, i sometimes cough like i need to clear my throat but no mucus ever comes up. i have been to the doctors nurmerous times and the hospital. had 2 chest xrays, a ct scan, 4 blood tests, checking for infections, blood clots, and cardiac issues all results have come back clear.

doctors have tried me on pendisone, antibiotics and symbicort and Ventolin inhalers, and antacids, all doing absolutely nothing for my symptoms.

They have now given up on me and i am worried i will be like this forever.

    ok, so it apoears tou are at a total loss of what is causing the trouble.

    1 do you know what the plant was that you e you were workibg with?

    2 were tou wearing gloves ?

    Have you sort a private consultation where you would get extra time for both discussion.

    what abour an infectious disease centre ? Have you recently returned from abroad ?

    it may gave nothing to dowitg the gardening

    it is my understanding one can develop a sensitivity to something that you gave dealt with for years ?

    Trust you get it sorted
