Nothing emotional, but physical. Last sunday I was feeling weak, and then all of a sudden i couldn't breathe properly, there was this pressure on my lungs and it was really

really

hard to breathe.

I decided to man up, but soon I ran to my mommy and she made me tea, and crap like that. But after 4/5 hours, she and my brother said it would be best to go to the er.

Well I get there, still feel like i could die any minute, had to wait for like an hour. Get inside, they take my blood (fucking nurse missed 6 times, and they had to take blood from my WRIST). Blood is good, they take an x-ray picture of my lungs, everything fine.

So they can send me home, but I'm still fucked. So I have to go to a specialist on thursday, and I made an appointment with me GE tomorrow (wednesday) at 8.20 AM. Which is like, in 5 hours because I CAN'T SLEEP!!

The not breathing part gradually faded into breathing, but I can only take one DECENT breath (and then I have to like, really GASP) every 4 or 5 breathes I take. And because I was forced to breathe forcefully these last three days, I'm afraid that I can't breathy automatically anymore.

Yeah, this shit is going manual dudes. Scares the crap out of me. That's why I can't sleep because I have to actually gasp for air, for normal intakes of breathe don't work for me. Man I hope my doctor is a miracle worker because this is some fucked up shit.

Yeah, I post this here because I have nowhere else to go.

Wtf do I do :/
 
I have no idea buddy, but hang in there I'm sure they'll figure out what's wrong with your lungs. Maybe in the mean time you should try not to overexert yourself too much.
 
Re-lax. I know it sounds like bullshit advice but anxiety will only make it more difficult to breathe.

Sorry to hear about this. Hope all goes well at the docs. :thumbsup:
 
I'm just sitting here, waiting. Another fucked up thing, I'm getting chestpains because I breathe too deep. I never heard of that shit, if this keeps up I can't breathe by myself anymore.
 
made it through the night. went to the doctor, she said i could be hyperventilating or it could be some sort of fear, some of the unwanted effects of the meds i had been taking for my ocd.

stopped taking the meds 2 days ago, i really hope it's because of that. man, im beat, slept 2 hours, this is fucked.
 
I remember having the same feeling as a child but it lasted only for half an hour. I kept my mind off it by watching some funny movie and it fucked off. I hope it fucks off for you as well.
 
I think it's going better. Thanks for hanging in there with me, guys. and girl.

oh yeah, I lost 6 fucking kilos (=13.2 pounds) in the last FOUR days because of my no-eating diet. damn. compare that to 4 kilos by going to the gym one whole month. I know it's prolly mostly water, but still >_>
 
Sorry you are not doing well and hope you are doing better. You know, I give nurses three tries on me, one on my kids, then I'm demanding another nurse, or doing it my fucking self. It is not that damn hard to draw blood or insert and IV.
 
I am sorry that you are having problems but it sounded like maybe you were having a allergic reaction to the meds. My son went through that when he was only 2 weeks old with Penacilian. He just could not breath and to top that he had a URI so my poor baby almost died because they did not catch it in time. So I hope that is all that it is and you get to feeling better. I agree do things to keep your mind off the pain and fear of not breathing if it happens again.

My prayers are with you.....
