Wheeze when breathing

7 replies

I've been feeling unwell, sore throat, aches and pains, today I've had a horrible high pitched wheeze when breathing in and out. I feel like it's coming from my throat and not my chest. I don't feel super poorly though. It's freaking me out. I'm not really ill as such just a little out of sorts. Google tells me I'm in heart failure so naturally I'm freaking the hell out and I am prone to health anxiety although I'm never actually ill! What could this wheeze be?! I'll not sleep tonight through worry I'll die in my sleep! I know this sounds mad but just wanting some reassurance really?!

I’ve got the same and have done for several days. I sound like Proms.

It's not just me then! It's a horrible sound and quite alarming! No matter how much coughing I do nothing moves and the sound is just horrible!

I don't feel like it's coming from my chest and no chest pain or anything

@TheBluntCrab I had no pain at all. Was a bloody shock I can tell you. Went for a chest x ray and there it was.
