Hi my mother was suffering with breathing problem. after lots of consultation she underwent goiter operation as doctor said that it was pressing the wind pipe. but after surgery she is still facing the breathing problem. now i m consulting with chest specialist. he has given her a nebulizer and mucolite saying may be chest congestion i am tensed. nobody is able to find the real problem. xray of chest was also clean. now what to do. is there any reason for breathing problem majorly in the night when she try to sleep.
Thanks for your question I completely understand your point actually breathlessness has the variety of causes starting from respiratory to cardiac. Breathlessness on lying down is mainly caused by cardiac illness like cardiac failure you need to consult a pulmonologist who can request for a chest X-ray, spirometry and a cardiologist who ll request for ECG don't panic have told you the format how to certainly diagnose the situationthanksfeel free to ask more questions may god bless your family with good health
