Relax, if it was a tumor, it would have shown up on the xray and would have manifested entirely different.

I've yet to do the radiology bit, actually

Now that we've also ruled out asthma, I also believe I should give the treadmill operating doctor (when I did the cardio-thingy with a difficult name) some credit. She said it was possible I was too tense and I wasn't breathing properly due to stress. Because I may not breathing properly, I sometimes grasp for air when I don't need it - so it feels like I can't inhale as much as I should.

It would make a hell lot of sense, as I'm pushing myself because of a series of lectures I'm giving... but, we shall see. I intend to have the x-rays taken in a few hours

The only other thing, and it may be a stretch, is that you have a deviated septum.

The only reason I suggest this is because almost the same shit happened to a friend of mine. Similar symptoms, out of nowhere. For years the docs were saying "You're fine, it's likely anxiety", and trying to get her to take antianxiety meds. She FINALLY got a referral to an EENT from her nurse practitioner and the EENT took one look at her (seriously, he could tell just from the visual exam) and knew that she had a deviated septum - obviously confirmed with more assessment.

So yeah, she's having surgery to correct it this summer and she's very relieved to finally have an answer she knows makes sense.


Again, bit of a stretch but you never know!

^^
Maybe that's what the face X-ray was for?

To be honest, all ideas are welcome

Would this show up on the face x-ray?

It definitely would, but I'm pretty sure it isn't necessary.

I guess he just wanted to exhaust all possible options. I'll find out next week

By the way, thanks everyone, I appreciate your help!

Sounds like a bad case of too much pubic hair if you ask me.

Yeah, and that's great actually. My friend had to wait 2 fucking years before someone finally did what she was asking for all along. Fucking doctors and their knowitall/god complexes.

Surgery for a deviated septum? oh please, I know I'm not Dr. House but according to the American Association of Proctologists, most fags walk around with obliterated rectums and they still manage to walk it off. Fuck your friend, tell the bitch to man up.

i received a blod clot in my lungs a while ago. maybe that's what you have

I'll take a stab at it and say bronchitis. Sounds like a respiratory infection to me, although one that probably isn't too serious. In this case, some Amoxicillin or Augmentin (Amoxicillin/clavulante) would take care of it. Or you may not even need medication and the condition will just go away. If it's acute bronchitis, antibiotics will not work, antivirals will be needed.

I'm not so sure. It sounds an awful lot like Space Dementia to me.

Whatever you have, I'm sure we have drugs for it. Prepare your wallet.

Could be asthma. I had 'temporary asthma' once when I went to Montreal. Quite scary...

Did the doctor make you lean forward and and get you to breathe in deep, and cough, whilst putting a stethoscope to the back of your ribs? Suggest it to them. Could be that you need a steroid inhaler for a while...

This is the #1 reason why I hope it's just anxiety/stress

I should get all the results this Tuesday, and then I'll schedule an appointment with the doctor (hopefully) soon afterwards.

Aye, (t)he(y) did, and Friday I had to borrow one of these inhalers for some weird lung capacity exam. It felt good, but I'm not sure I could really breathe any better after that

I was being supervised when I tried it

By the way, I can't find Nou's ghost embedding script, but no House MD thread I post will ever be complete without this clip.

you might have a bad case of DIS.

Damn Eye Sore?

DIS DICK *grabs crotch and spits in your eye.*

Ouch! O.*

Finally got the results. The best of all? I have no idea how I can say this in English, as Wikipedia apparently doesn't agree with my doctor about terminology.

The face X-ray turned out to be a tomography (which is well fun, I must say) and it showed that some irregular bone growth in the nasal cavity, and the mucosa apparently liked the new chill-out room. It shouldn't be much of a big deal, but because I was exposed to too much dust last year (something I know I'm allergic to) it only made things worse for me.

In short: My heart is fine, I don't have asthma, and I'd like to thank you all for your help and attention

Originally posted by Sushipunk I was about to say the same thing.

Likewise.

I'm no expert, but given your testimony, it sounds environmental or genetic to me. Although that's just me applying logic...... I need to point out I'm not a doctor (of medicine that is) lol.

Either way mate, I hope everything is OK and continues to be so.

Keep us all updated
