I was looking through my search engine about Dysfunctional Breathing as I have just been diagnosed with it and to my horror I was angry as I initially thought it was because I was breathing in the worng way....NO....it is a very rare and quite serious condition and mine is caused by my heart.
The reason I am adding this post is because mumsnet came up in the search engine with the heading Anxiety and Dysfunctional Breathing.
I read all the comments and was quite concerned that the advice given was the wrong one.
This condition should be treated with the help of a GP, Respiratory Specialist and Physiotherapist as these people will help cope with the breathlessness that you get with it among many other symptoms depending on the extent of it.
Please, when giving advice do make sure it is the correct advice as if wrong advice given this can cause severe effects down the line.
I do not want to cause offence just ask you to be efficent in your replies.
Thank you for listening x
