I feel like I can't breathe

Hello

I've posted a few times about my breathing but for a few days I feel like I can't exhale as such.

It's really scaring me as the dr said I have asthma yet I'm not sure if I do or if it's just part of my anxiety.

It's really taking it's toll and I haven't been at work because if it - I'm scared that something will happen if I'm not at home.

Could someone please advise me what I can do to try help my breathing? Also how will I know for sure if it's asthma or anxiety?

Thanks in advance.

I feel like my throat is closing up too.

I just want to cry but I know that won't help.

Honestly, crying always makes me feel better. I often feel like i can't "get all my breath out"

Has the sensation gone ?

Iv had this for 3 months ! Also a now and again feeling of my air been cut off I too have asthma but the inhaler does not help

Did the doctor test you for asthma? It's a breathing test, one with out an inhaler, then one with an inhaler. The results are compared, if improved with inhaler that's asthma diagnosed, then they are correct.....

I'm glad I'm not the only one who feels like their breath won't come out. It's a horrible feeling.

After visiting the dr and having a few basic tests, I felt a lot better than when I originally went in.

I did experience every similar feelings last night but I tried not to convince myself it was asthma.

I still am worried that the same things will happen again and again but there really isn't anything I can do. - or not that I know of.

I hope your ok?

I did do the peak flow test and my scoring wasn't as high as they had hoped - not sure if this is because I'm petite and don't have much lung capacity.

With and without the inhaler the tests were similar but this varies on a daily basis.

I am waiting for an appointment for physiotherapy but I don't know how this is linked to my breathing?
