@windwalker- Terri I'm sorry to hear this. Have you been to the doctor? What do you think might be causing this?

@merpreb Hi Merry. Thank you for your concern, but I am no stranger to SOB. It gets worse when the humidity levels rise. It is more difficult for me to move warm, thicker air in and out of my lungs. This is not uncommon for people with bronchiectasis, COPD, etc. I go back to the Mayo on June 5 & 6 for my annual lung function tests and cts. I usually do step up my game with more diligent breathing treatments with albuteriol, sodium chloride, and Tobramycin. Really, it's just the nature of the beast. I am also trying to be mindful of hydrating more.
