Guest guest Posted March 1, 2008 Report Share Posted March 1, 2008 How scary Akiba. I don't have any answers but you will remain in my prayers. Hugs nne Something happened last night that scared the poot outta me. I woke up with a wicked tickle in my throat, coughing and coughing, so hard I could not get my breath. Literally could not aspirate. I had to strain with everything I had to get air into me. I finally was able to sit up, it got a little better, but took several minutes before I could draw breath, and longer before I could breathe anywhere near normally. My chest hurt for hours with the strain. Anyone ever have anything like this happen? It scared me, I could have passed out and maybe worse. Thoughts? Ideas?

Guest guest Posted March 1, 2008 Report Share Posted March 1, 2008 Akiba. Im so sorry. This happy face crying almost made me cry! Im sure you will be ok till wed. At least I hope and pray so. This sounds like a very scary thing to go through and especially wile sleeping. I would have panicked big time. I hope it is something not so serious. Like a cold or bronchitis. If it happens anymore before wed. Maybe you should make an emergency appt. Have you ever been checked for sleep apnea? Just wondering. Hang in there k. I will be saying lots of prayers for you. luv n hugz,cassy Re: Very scary night How scary Akiba. I don't have any answers but you will remain in my prayers.

Guest guest Posted March 1, 2008 Report Share Posted March 1, 2008 I don't know if this has been asked yet - but sounds like it could have been an asthma attack. Could you hear yourself wheezing?

Guest guest Posted March 1, 2008 Report Share Posted March 1, 2008 Dear Akiba: How far is it for emergency services to reach you? If this happens again call the EMTs or ambulance or whatever you have immediately. Well I should say have Rob call. I mentioned to you earlier that a close friend of mine with MS has a problem where she chokes on her own spit (her description) and can't get air in or out. She said these episodes will last several minutes before she can finally get breath again. Her neuro (and my neuro) told her she needs botox injections into her voice box but so far her insurance hasn't approved it. Another doctor before she saw my neuro told her if she passed out she would then be able to breath. She is naturally very panicked over this and she said it scares her horribly each time it happens. I hope you don't mind but I forwarded your email to Diane and asked her if your description sounds like what happens to her. Is it okay? love Sharon This email is a natural hand made product.

Very scary night Something happened last night that scared the poot outta me. I woke up with a wicked tickle in my throat, coughing and coughing, so hard I could not get my breath. Literally could not aspirate. I had to strain with everything I had to get air into me. I finally was able to sit up, it got a little better, but took several minutes before I could draw breath, and longer before I could breathe anywhere near normally. My chest hurt for hours with the strain. Anyone ever have anything like this happen? It scared me, I could have passed out and maybe worse. Thoughts? Ideas?

Guest guest Posted March 1, 2008 Report Share Posted March 1, 2008 Not a problem. Any and all advice on this one is welcome> It was pretty scary, was afraid to go back to sleep for a long time. How far for emergency services? No clue, guess I'd better look into that, eh? Hugs Akiba -- Re: Very scary night Dear Akiba:How far is it for emergency services to reach you? If this happens again call the EMTs or ambulance or whatever you have immediately. Well I should say have Rob call. I mentioned to you earlier that a close friend of mine with MS has a problem where she chokes on her own spit (her description) and can't get air in or out. She said these episodes will last several minutes before she can finally get breath again. Her neuro (and my neuro) told her she needs botox injections into her voice box but so far her insurance hasn't approved it. Another doctor before she saw my neuro told her if she passed out she would then be able to breath. She is naturally very panicked over this and she said it scares her horribly each time it happens. I hope you don't mind but I forwarded your email to Diane and asked her if your description sounds like what happens to her. Is it okay? loveSharon This email is a natural hand made product.

Guest guest Posted March 1, 2008 Report Share Posted March 1, 2008 Yeah, maybe it would be a good idea to check on the emergency services in your area. LOLSpeaking of your area--how is Mindy doing?

Rob got the truck stuck in the snow this afternoon, I went out and got in and helped him get it out...YAAY ME That is the first time I have left the house since Nov!!!

Guest guest Posted March 1, 2008 Report Share Posted March 1, 2008 Yes, I have had this. I was so worried that I was coming down with something I went to my doc, he said that I prob had the start of the flu and he said to use my inhealer (sp) when this happens. In just a few days I did have the flu and felt like a mac truck had ran over me for about 36 hours. Do you have an inhealer? If not try this, when the cough first starts go pur your head in the freezer and breath deep through your mouth. Do it a few times and cough with your head in the freezer, cover your mouth of course. LOL. My DH has asthma and when he can't get to his inhealer he will put ice in a cup and breath into the cup a few times...does that make since??? It helps him. Always, Live simply. Love generously. Care deeply, Speak kindly. Leave the rest to God. Re: Very scary night How scary Akiba. I don't have any answers but you will remain in my prayers.

Guest guest Posted March 1, 2008 Report Share Posted March 1, 2008 I don't have an inhaler, no, but I *do* have a freezer (not referring to outside, either) Thanks for the suggestions Akiba -- Re: Very scary night Yes, I have had this.
