I was out of shape at one point and yes I have some flab but like I said, I've ran 2 miles nonstop for about a year and a half. I'm 6'0 180lbs atm, so no I'm not that fat.

It took you two years, nonstop to run to TWO miles?! Im going to say fatty...

Hope you get better, sounds like asthma to me.... Find a friend who has asthma and ask if you could 'use' his inhaler (albeuterol) when you get one of these 'attacks'. I know it's really bad for me to say this but unless you're allergic to albuterol, you should be fine, he may look at you weird or something but explain to him the situation and that you're not sure sure that you have asthma but want to check. Beg if you have to!

Basically if using the inhaler (which again isn't really ok w/o doctors permission just like ritalin) solves you're problem, you know you have asthma.

I think the problem is your airways are constricted but your lungs are clear which makes it difficult if not impossible to diagnose you for asthma since usually the lungs are filled with liquid and the "wind pipe' is constricted. When the doctor uses a stethoscope to listen to your lungs, if they sound fine, they'll have no idea that you have asthma..

Sounds to me you have constricted airways with no fluid in your lungs...

There's a chance it might be asthma.. but I never get 'attacks'. I'm just always low on air.

I'm no doctor, but exercise does lessen the body's need to breath (your heart beats slower, and your other muscles are more capable, thus requiring less air and energy) so it should help.

I am very happy you are not a doctor. These three lines contained so many errors I do not even know where to begin.


To the OP. Your symptoms sound like asthma. Try and blow up a baloon. If it is very difficult, get tested for asthma.
You might be allergic to something. I suffer from hay fever, and I can suffer from symptons akin to yours during periods with a lot of pollen in the air.

Actually his suggestions make a lot more sense than yours do. What errors do you see? I also have asthma and hay fever. His symptoms resemble neither. A 4 year asthma attack is recockulous. Also his doctors would have been able to detect that easily instead of telling him his lungs are 20% over average.

Didn't you say it gets worse at certain times?

Worse, yea. Not asthma attack worse.

It could be pretty serious. Find another doctor. Off the top of my head it could be a weird fibrillation in your heart caused by a chemical imbalance, Unless it is happening at the moment all an eco cardiogram will notice is that you have a normal heart and valves. It could be a micro embolism in your lungs that manages to dissipate itself. Go get yourself checked out.


Worse comes to worse both the micro embolism or the fibrillation could lead to a larger embolism. Thats like the number 2 cause of sudden death for people under 30.
David Bloom the NBC reporter died of this. Not to scare the snot out of you but I would get an opinion with a second cardiologist.

Embolisms are extremely painful, and don't resolve themselves with deep respirations.

It could be anything from anxiety to a perforated septum in your heart. That only leaves a few hundred possibilities, find a good doc.

It probably is in your head. (And being a hypochondriac, I would know.) But it is always better to be sure.

If you want to increase lung capacity, take up swimming.

P.S. I forgot, put some windex on your chest.

I think hyperventilation sounds pretty close to what I have.. but what I got is nonstop. I always feel this wall in the way of my breathing.

Dude, you have asthma or some ****** like it, if you're not going to take up my suggestion, maybe you should go to a doctor and tell them you have it, they'll write you a prescription and you can test it out your self. Apparently you're not getting it, your wind pipe is constricting up/is constricted with out your lungs collecting fluid which makes for the diagnosis of asthma hard to come to.

Also if you're going to go the "legitimate route" maybe you should explain what your problem is in simplified terms such as "its difficult to breathe" and "I believe I have asthma".. Not what you wrote in your post because the only person who would have guess asthma would have been a smart doctor or one who has asthma..
