Difficulties to take a deep breath

I would like to talk about a condition that I can’t explain. Not so long ago I started to observe that I have some difficulties when I take a deep breath. Usually it happens during the night. When I just found about this condition I started to think that this is because of hypoglycemia and I immediately started to ask my doctor about this. What is important is that he told me that I have to do some exams in order to concretize the right symptoms and positions which make me feel so bad and so scared. Obviously I thought since the beginning that there can be other diseases that can provoke such a thing but the first impression was that it was provoked by the hypoglycemia dysfunction. The first test that I did was a cardiac test which was clear and I was very glad that my condition wasn’t because of some heart diseases (my mother had it so I’m not sure if it could be transmitted to me). The second thig was a pulmonary test which showed the same thing, my lungs and my heart conditions were in a very good one. My doctor couldn’t explain why I experience such a thing all the nights. So I started to be very nervous because I really hate when I can’t take under control the situation.At the end I started to be mad on my doctor because he told me that in his opinion it’s all in my head. I hate such situations when doctors can’t explain rationally what is your disease linked to and they start to introduce some different options that don’t explain anything, they are doing this just in order to get rid of you and to hide the incompetence that they are having.

 

I started to investigate my situation by myself. The first thing in my list was “asthma” but I suddenly eliminated it because I have had some experience during my life and I knew that this couldn’t be asthma. I get asthma from cats and I know very well that feeling. My situation was different and I knew it. I can explain my situation as a very uncomfortable one. It’s like trying to breathe deeply in order to satisfy the breath but you feel that you cannot do this and that even if you try to do it in the best way it’s like you can’t do this enough to satisfy the need. This is a little bit painful and uncomfortable. During this week I just started to examine the symptoms that I have and I noticed again that when I have my hypoglycemic symptoms and in addition to things like to feeling some palpitations, migraines and to feel some fatigue I feel this strange difficulties while breathing which make all the situation worse than it was before, scarier. 

 

I have had a similar situation 20 years ago but it was before the era of internet and online progress when I could not investigate my symptoms in order to find out what could be the problem that I now have. Now that I experience this again and that I can find more experiences and opinions just staying near to my computer I feel more comfortable because I can write here and I can be sure that after some hours or maybe tomorrow somebody will reply to my question or will share with me his experience.  Thanks to internet, some years ago I found that there are some studies that link some correlations between micro vascular angina and hyperinsulinism. I just investigated some similarities between some of symptoms of this disease and I found out that the pain and the shortest of breath is one of symptoms. Obviously I can’t be sure that this is my situation but I’m very glad that. I could inform myself and I could understand one of the situation that maybe could be my situation. Now as you understood I’m here to add to my list other things that could be the cause to my disease. I would like to find people that have experienced the same condition or that experience this now. What do you think, am I right? Is this linked with the hypoglycemia? Waiting for you answer and thanks for taking your time for replying.

I have had a similar situation and I would like to enlighten you and to make you understand one thing. The fact is that the breath difficulties are not provoked by hypoglycemia but in our case the hypoglycemia was provoked by the breath difficulties, it is vice versa. In fact when I first found about this, my doctor said that the pain and breath difficulties that I usually experience create a special sensation and keeps the sugar level on my blood very low. I hope that you know that oxygen and blood have a big correlation between them and that’s why when we can normally breathe it create to us different problems that are linked with blood and heart diseases. I think that your doctor did a very good job when he sent you to do the examination of your heart, the only bad thing is that he didn’t finished his work properly. He was very near to the answer but he did nothing to reach it and I’m very sorry about it, especially because this is his duty. Anyway, this is not the end, and you don’t have to think about you health by your own. Remember that there are thousands of other doctors that can help you to find out the answer. Remember that cardiovascular problems could be very serious and you don’t have to wait until your situation will become worse. Go and do something about this because I feel like you’re near the answer.
