Walking/exercise And Breathing Problem Posted: 04-12-07 10:10am
Hi, i hope someone here can help me out.
My wife has had a few bouts with pneumonia
and they have left her lungs in not so
fantastic shape. She reacts strongly to
smoke and excessive dust, but her main
problem is the walk in to work. It's a
five minute walk from the parking
structure to her office and her breathing
gets so bad that she has to take three or
four breaks along the way. She has seen
her regular doc and is on all kinds of
meds and inhalers but so far the only
thing it does is make her feel shaky and
wound up. She does have an appointment
with a specialist coming up, but i was
wondering if anyone here has a similar
problem and any advice?
thanks.

Does your wife have other problems as
well? Is she overweight, for example?
Heavy breathing during mild movement is
not normal. What else is going on?
