Hi....
I have just joined this forum in hope of finding out.solution to my problem.i have been suffering with.shortness of breath while talking,walking ,climbi g up and down the stairs.and.lil activities like bending and so on...
It started in may 2012 when i got severly sick.due to vit d insufficiency....wich caused alot of physical weakness.and.fatigue that my.limbs and arms were.literally shaking when.i did anything or walked....after high.doses of vit d injections i did recover...but.right after that.started.feeling tired if i spoke little over phone.or even.talking to my kids and.husband was.making me tired and i prefered to stay quiet...next symptoms that developed were that i was getting.out.of breath.when i moved.little or.performed.daily.routine house work such.as cutting.onion moving my hands.and.arms for stiring while cookin....it got so.worse that i had been refered to the hospital for all blood tests and x ray.blood test showed infection sign.....since i was having breathing related troubles and pain in ribs and strain on right side lung they named it as chest infection, on the other hand chest xrays came out normal andclear.
Doctors treated me with antibiotis and antiinflamatories.....which was. Almost four months ago
Infection cleared but symptoms did not .....started some herbal products recommended by herbalist felt little better frustration.led me to search for more such as homeopathic treatment.found a homeopathic treatment online which i payed for...took my history..of sicknesses and prescribed.....bryonia.china silicea
And cordyceps as a supplement but all these didnt help much ..next.step was to keep looking and searhing for something that could help me get back to normal..but stil i havnt been.able to find the name of my sicknesss doctors have no helped me here in uk.alll i have been doing is trying to help myself
I still get tired when.i talk or have a conversation over phone it seems.like pressure is on.my lungs n ..and shortness of breath is still there
Sometimes i feel like my problem.is related to sinus or blocked nose problem when.i get up. In the.morning i feel my.nose blocked....
I am able to sleep at.night.i have no shortness of breath at night since i am not.moving and doing anything...
Weakness and trembling of limbs and arms had.finished but since.last.two weeks symptoms have returned and making my thigh area and arms feel weak when i walk or do.sometning

Thank you for replying i would like to mention that i have seen gp today again as i am feeling blocked and congested nasal passage and tubes behind my nose and throat.on examination doctor confirmed that i have quite congested nose...and that could also be the reason for narrowed breathing passages and shortness of breath and she named it as rhinitis.
Pls advice if i need to add any more remedies for this problem and when to report you after having three doses of phosphorous 200.
Thanks.
 
anaaa last decade
Please go ahead with Phosphorus 200. You may report after 15 days or earlier too if there is something significant to report.

I would like to thank all the professionals who haVe tried to suggest me remedies.
All the suggestions included phosphorous.dr kadwa was the 1st one to make a response on my query.i have taken taken phosphorous 200 potency .i didnt take any other remedy as thats the only remedy i have at the moment it has shown.positive results so i would like to stick to it before i order more.

Please advice me if i could take more doses of.phosphorous. 200 as the difference i felt is not.much and as not improved after stopping t.infact it seems.to have stopped there..
I would.like.to get better instead of waiting ..as being a mother of three involves a busy and active routine which i am not able to keep up due to this problem.
Please.let me know if i can continue to take the remedy to have a speedy recovery.
Thanks

Annaa, I am not a Dr,although, i have come across similar symptomps, (one of them i interact daily )

i would suggest to contact a Pulmonologist

a Pulomonologist is heart and lung specialist,

all you said indicates, right heart and lung, (specifically, talking breathless, cooking, so on.
