My biggest challenge would be able to swim like I use to. I'm a member of US Masters Swimming and the National Senior Games. The most I can swim now is fifty yards then I have to stop and catch my breath. I can ride my bike and walk the dog around the hills where I live with know problems. Just swimming is where I suffer. You have my okay to connect me with these other members. If have have more information for the doctors it may help. The first doctor I saw I'm thinking never had this condition before him. Thank you, keep in touch

I have been struggling with the same issue with swimming .. Last summer in the beginning I would not make it far with out stopping for air …but continued on and it got better . This year is even more challenging and my Diaphram on the left is not functioning correctly . Does your rib cage stand up straight when you lay down ? I have a referral to a Thorasic Surgeon . I don’t know what I am doing as far as a plan .
