Hi, a month ago i had started coughing everytime i puff a cigarette so i decided to quit.A week after i quit the dr. said i had fluid by my lungs and gave me antibotics. I dont have anymore mucus its just feel like i have a lump in my throat which causes me to have short of breath. Is this normal?
HI,Dear,Welcome to HCM. Based on the facts and data of your query,you seem to have Pleurisy with GERD. Breathlessness is due to reduced lung volume from the lung fluid causing atelectatic lung. Thus this is not Normal.If it is disturbing you would need ER treatment urgetnly.If not get pulmonologist to drain pleurisy,if need be. Hope this reply would help you to resolve your sever anxiety. Welcome for any further query in this regard
