I keep getting attacks where my airways close up amd fll with mucus, and I simply cannot get enough air in. It isn't hyperventilation, I know how that feels. Attempting to ignore it causes my vision to narrow and my body forces me to gasp. I took Diazepam for it when a doctor blamed anxiety and became a hundred times worse. I could literally feel the airway tissue closing, and an ambulance had to help me through.
It seems to be connected to the hot weather or relaxing my body; being in a hot shower, lying in bed with duvets over me and windows/doors closed, being out in the morning and being in a car all affect me. Ice cream helped me the other day for a while. Is it normal to feel breathless in too hot weather, or do I have asthma and haven't realised for such a long time..!! All attempts to search for answers say you must have a breathing problem in the first place for heat to affect you!
