Hi Joanna
I have not been tested for breathing problems but I have constantly got a pain in my chest which feels like a heavy concrete slab on me restricting my breathing. I was diagnosed many years with Costochronditus which is inflammation of the membrane of the ribcage. It makes me feel as though I am running out of breath.

Would be interested if anyone else has heard or suffered from this condition. Xx

Ya i know what you mean i have that too, and other illnesses because of my fibromyaglia.
I just hoping i can have something to help me breath.
As copd makes me cough so bad so bad i reach like im going to be sick.
Then i feel like i got something suck and then i cough again which hurts as i find it hard to breath and with the cough as well it hurts to breath.
When i had my lung test i was told i had lungs of a 53 year old.
