Hi
I am having huge problems here with my fibro. Does anyone have trouble with breathing like they can't get enough oxygen to maintain a even breathing pattern. I have had my heart checked and it rules out that is a problem but they the dr have found a black spot on my left lung and not sure rather it is the fibro or not. I need help also get tingles in feet and arms anyone that can help please let me know.
Thanks
debby

YES!!!  YOU NEED TO GET IN TO A PULMONARY DOCTOR NOW!  YOU WILL MOST LIKELY BE TAKEN FOR A CHEST X-RAY AND THAN A CAT SCAN.  THEN OR MAYBE IN BETWEEN THOSE TWO YOU WILL BEEN GIVEN A BREATHING TEST.  THAN AFTER ALL OF THAT THE DOCTOR WILL BE ABLE TO TELL YOU WHAT IS GOING ON.  I'M NOT A DOCTOR BUT IT SOUNDS LIKE COPD TO ME.  I HAVE THAT ALONG WITH OTHER LUNG PROBLEMS, I USE 2 INHALERS A DAY AND DO THE NEBULIZER AS MUCH AS 4 TIMES A DAY. ( IT REALLY HELPS!!)  BUT LIKE A SAID THE ONLY ONE THAT CAN REALLY TELL YOU WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW IS A PULMONARY DOCTOR, GOOD LUCK!!!! TERI

Hi
thanks for the info people have left for me. I collapsed just after posting the question and was taken to hospital and they tried to get me a bed in the hospital but they were full up. I then was sent home and went to the doctor and collapsed again and was then admitted to hospital they did many tests and blood showed way low in B12 and iron levels. I was put on oxygen and ventiolin and regular pills. I am now home weak and tired the house needs cleaning and I have no energy to do a thing about it. What can I do as the mess is getting to me. Hope everyone else is doing ok or if not please know I pray daily for my fibro family.
Debby
