Last December, I got a bad cough. Two weeks later, I began having significant breathing problems, and I have had them ever since. I have asthma, but it has been well controlled for years, and my peak flows have been fine throughout this whole process. Prednisone seems to have no effect, and nebulizer treatments and my rescue inhaler seem to help sometimes and not help at all other times. Pulmonary function testing, blood gases test, x-rays, C/T scans, echocardiogram, stress test, echo stress test, allergy testing, and a bronchoscopy have all come back normal (the pulmonologist who did the bronchoscopy said my brochial tube looked somewhat transparent and irritated but said that could be normal - the bronchial wash revealed nothing). I've had multiple blood tests (thyroid problems, Lymes, etc.), and the only thing that showed up was that I have low iron (iron counts have been slowly improving since I've been on an iron supplement). My doctor says "anxiety", but I have been on Celexa for months and am still having problems. Nothing about my personality or life situation suggest anxiety issues, and I have a difficult time believing that someone who has never had anxiety problems could get a bad cough and suddenly develop anxiety issues so severe that they cause daily, persistent breathing difficulties. If anyone has suggestions as to what I can do next, I would greatly appreciate it. In the meantime, I will continue to trust in the sovereign control and provision of God - I know He has all of this in His hands. Thank you!
