How Can Shortness Of Breath Be Prevented?
I have history of COPD, asthma and inflammation of the larynx. Right after Christmas I began having shortness of breath more than usual. I have had labs done and seen my pulmonary specialist. I am currently on Spiriva, Nasonex, and Atrovent and was on prednisone from Jan 16-20. All tests results are good. I also have Type II diabetes, Nonalcoholic cirrhosis, chronic kidney disease (rt nephrectomy in 2004), ITP. My Pulmonary said my lungs sound clear. Is there anything I can do to prevent from having these episodes.
