I do you can just feel your chest feels heavy and pain when you inhaling or exhaling or quick sharp pains that by the time you get to see your Dr most of the time are gone .. or maybe even some tightening in there

Yep. I have horrible inflammation in my lungs an heart from lupus also fluid build up. Some days I can't walk 20 feet without feeling like I just sprinted the 200. Other days it's a constant game of pain an trying to catch my breath. As of now nothing has worked to bring down the inflammation an it's causeing permanent damage in my lungs
