What Causes Trouble In Breathing?

I have been having trouble breathing for 2 months straight now. I feel like my trachea is closing and it doesn't ever seem to stop. I am really annoyed and I am currently on Prednisone. It helps kind of. I also have eczema on my neck. I have phlem along with the throat problems. I also am having lactating out of no where. I had a child 7 years ago, and as far as I know i am not pregnant.

Pulmonologist,  's  Response
Thanks for your question on Healthcare Magic.
I can understand your concern.
In my opinion, you should consult pulmonologist and rule out asthma.
You are having eczema (skin allergy), breathlessness and choking sensations in throat. All these are seen in asthma.
So consult pulmonologist and get done clinical examination of respiratory system and PFT (pulmonary function test).
PFT will not only diagnose asthma but it will also tell you about severity of the disease and treatment is based on severity only.
You will improve with inhaled bronchodilator and inhaled corticosteroids (ICS).
For lactation, I think you should consult gynecologist and get done clinical examination and hormone levels to rule out hormonal imbalance.
Don't worry, you will be alright with all these.
Hope I have solved your query. I will be happy to help you further. Wish you good health. Thanks.
