But do discuss this with your doctor.
Yes Mrs.D, I have the breathing issue before Gabapentin, but it seems that its getting worse now. I am using the peak flow meter and my results are lower than it used to.
I was searching on the symptoms of COPD/Emphysema last night, and it seems that the only symptoms consistent to COPD is the shortness of br eath. I dont have a cough...and I can exercise without gasping for air. My wheezing is very very rarely.
