Double breathing - involuntary breaths, gasps



Recommended Posts

Since day 2, I've been having what google claims is "double breathing". Those are sudden random and involuntary giants breaths that children usually have after a long bout of sobbing. Google claims it can occur after crying, hyperventilating, or panic attacks. All I had was surgery!

It is very uncomfortable, as I cannot prepare for them, and the pain is enormous. For a cough, I can grab a pillow. For these breaths, I can only wince and shudder. What the heck? I wonder if it's part of my 'mild' asthma?

Call your clinic. This is unusual and should be reported and checked out. You want to make sure your have not developed a pulumary embolism or other serious condition and only a doctor and tests will be able to determine. Please check back in and let us know how you are doing. Hopefully, it is just part of your asthma, and not serious at all.
