Bump this up for new person who posted about breathing problems.

I now regularly have breathing problems. I have to control them with Ativan and self-hypnosis or guided imagery. I can't let myself get too upset, and must calm my rib cage muscles so that I can breathe. Sometimes this will last several days.

Also, my digestion is a mess.

It is important to have a good pain doc and change up the pain meds program completely every year or so. It tricks the brain a bit, and I've actually come to a lower dose (type) of meds now due to changing things up several times now. (6 1/2 years of TOS.)

No real improvement, however. Still primarily bedridden, with a "good" day every few weeks.

Best to all.
