hey, i have recently been experianceing something, and i dont know if its related to my asthma, or not. Its kind of a hard thing to describe, but occasionally, i get this breathlessness feeling in my lungs, and an upward convex feeling in my cheast, i increasing my breathing, and it eventually goes away. The medications im on are: pulmicort, serivent, and ventolin, (i do use predisolone, but i havent used it for awhile) i was wondering if anyone could tell me if i have anything wrong? thanks

That sort of sounds like it is realeted to asthma but I would get it checked out anyway if I were you. No one can diagnose you here, but we can offer support and advice.

Based upon the way you described your sensation, I have the same sensation sometimes. I always assumed it was my asthma.

I would get checked out again. I have had asthma since I was a child. I almost died when I was 3 from an asthma attack. I am surprised you are taking all that medication. I get tested and find out if you has ashtma for sure

i can assure you i definately do have asthma, i used to frequently have asthma attarks, where i would be hospitalised, and i was put on serevent to control my asthma when my peak flow was low. I have recently thought to be diagnosed with myoclonus (i will be going for an MRI at some point) and i was really hoping for someone to tell me that this sensation is nothing, as i really cannot afford to have anything else wrong with me. Thanks for the messages though.
