hello everyone
I am a little worried about my breathing lately,just wondered if anyone has experienced the same thing?
my breathing feels very shallow all the time almost as if I could stop breathing at anytime...& on a few occasions recently I have actually caught my breath,sort of gasped & then had to take a couple of deep breaths to feel as if I am breathing again..sorry,does that make any sense?
these experiences have been a little frightening & I have found myself focusing on my breathing in case it happens again,especially when I am in bed :worried:
the only other symptom I have had is my body feeling numb & weak...but no recent cold,cough,infection etc
also I have been anaemic in the past & felt breathless & weak but this feels different..
I am wondering if it could it be a side effect from my medication?(immuran & plaquenil)
or some sort of panic attacks?..although I don't feel anxious at all & I've never had any problems in the past except for being claustrophobic (sp?)
or is it nothing at all,just me being dramatic :lol:
anyway,sorry to ramble on...I would really appreciate any advice at all.
Thank you for reading
