Very interesting & helpful to our knowledge of what helps with sob. Thanks for posting @princessjilly
All good Will post in a few days as to how its going.
Palliative gave me morphine as well, liquid form I find it to be extremely helpful for SOB. It tricks the mind into not feeling suffocating sensations.
Im finding the same feeling. Am only taking it when really necessary as it does make me quite sleepy. I have also got the liquid kind. Anything that helps is sure good. Take care.
