Does the SOB get worse when you exert yourself...like a flight of stairs?
So glad you're getting in with another rheumy next month...heck Sept is right around the corner.

The time when SOB disappears while lying down was when it was not this bad. Strangely, my SOB is just same whether siiting or lying down. But then its really bad when I'm bending or picking up something from the floor.
The breathing does not get worse when climbing the stairs...I think its the same. Though with difficulty, what with my painful feet, I still do walking and the stationary bicycle
Thank you.
