Can't Get a Deep Breath, Keep Trying to Yawn....please Help Posted: 11-24-06 21:54pm
Since last sunday I haven't been able to
get a deep breath at all, I keep trying
over and over to yawn. When I do yawn
finally I feel relief for a few seconds
mostly during the yawn then back to it
again. I had pluerisy in august and this
yawning thing happened after pluerisy on
and off I have had it but not this much.
I don't know what to do. The only thing
different I did sunday was start taking
birth control pill again, it's one month
expired but my doctor said that was ok, I
only take it to regulate my cycle, I can't
see how this could be linked. I am
desperate to know what is causing this and
how to get rid of it. When I had
pluerisy, that came out of nowhere, I had
no illnesses or anything, no coughing or
cold, just severe pain when breathing. I
went and had cat scans done, went to a
lung specialist, told him about the
yawning but didn't get any response about
that, it's almost like people think I am
crazy when I tell them. I am 29,
healthy,never smoked, never had asthma or
allergies, I wouldn't know if I did. I
don't have any other symptoms at all, just
need to figure this out, please help!

Many people have the same problem. It's
really quite common.
I had it myself at age 5 due to anemia.
And I still get it occasionally now, which
I put down to stress.
However, if i'm correct, pleurisy can
cause inability to take a deep breath so I
would say it is due to this.
I'm sure it will clear up eventually, but
if you are worried, go back to your doc
for some medical advice and reassurance

Omg! I am so glad I have found someone
who has done the exact same thing! The
first time it happened I was early into a
pregnancy and the Dr. Could only think
because my uteris was tilted it was
pushing everything under my lungs. It was
so bad I felt like I couldnt breathe. I
would set up crying because it made my
nerves so bad.That was 2 yrs ago.
Well I found your question because I was
looking it up because i'm doing it again.
But I am having pregnancy symptoms, so if
I am then that is my answer to why I do
this, but if I am not , I dont know what
to do either about it because it is very
frustrating.

I also have the same problem. The only
way for me to take a deep breath at times
is by forcing myself to yawn. I noticed
when im around smoke at a bar or
something, i feel really horrible the next
day. My sinus's irritate me and i have
trouble breathing. i also find that when
i get a stuffy nose i tend to have
problems breathing as well, maybe its all
in my head.

It could be mild asthma. I get like that
too sometimes and was diagnosed asthmatic
last July at 26yrs old.
sitting around thew cig smoke could be
what triggered it. If you still have
probs taking a deep breath after a week,
then see a doc.
