My husband has gained like 40 pounds from his illness and the steriods he's taking.... and scares the h*ll out of me at night - he stops breathing for LONG periods of time....then GASPS for breath.....I jump straight out of my skin and it's awful to witness - did the Sleep problem stop after losing weight ? |
I don't know the medical term for her breathing problems. But do know that she needed oxygen to help her breath at night. She also had very bad asthma. But since the weight lose, she has her asthma under control. She called us from the hospital about 2 or 3 months ago. She had been in the prison's clenic and they rushed her to the hospital because she had a what she thought was a bad asthma attack. Turns out it was a panic attack. Which is totally understandable!
Sorry to hear about your husband. I remember reading that he was ill a while back. What does he have? Will he be ok?
Tara, thank you sweetie! You put a smile in my face! I am pretty ha. LOL LOL LOL LOL!!!!!!!! No but really, I have a weight issue as well. I am 180 and was ok with that till up to about last year. I'm getting older and things are not sitting like they used to. As you can see my face is very round and seems to be falling. LOL my chin hangs a bit more then I care for it to. My arms and tummy,,,,, forget it! The only part of my body that is still in very good shape is my legs. I take after my mamma with the legs! My mom is going to be 60 and still has nice firm and smooth legs.
I do hope everything works out for your mother and that she heals with flying colors! It took my sister quite a while to heal,,, but if she had to do it all over again she would do it in a heart beat!
