Guest guest Posted January 7, 2008 Report Share Posted January 7, 2008 Hey Group, I had been experiencing a smothered feeling at rest, for a good month or more. My PCP took an O-stat reading in the office & it was 93. He sent me for a Blood gas analysis, which showed low O2. He then sent me for an eco & sleep study. The eco was fine & I haven't gotten the results back from the sleep study yet......that will be tomorrow. I did see my local Neuro & he feels it is not Chiari related, but is sending me for an MRI of the brain today. My PCP started me on an inhaler, twice aday & I am still breathless.It has improved my breathing to a point, but the effects of the inhaler do not last & I'm right back to feeling breathless. At least I don't feel like I'm smothering anymore. I have also been having increased headaches along with body pain & fatigue. If anybody has any suggestions.........Please feel free to offer them up!!! Thanks, CVG Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted January 9, 2008 Report Share Posted January 9, 2008 , do you have a carbon monoxide alarm in your home? Get the carbon monoxide levels in your home measured. You can get a CO meter in any hardware store, or call you local Fire department and they can check it for you.
