Hello, my name is george. I'm 21 and i'm from georgia. Right now i'm too busy and out town so I can't really visit a doctor so I decided to try a consultation on online. I'm suffering a heavy breathing. I had this problem in the past when I was a kid and my doctor said that i'm having a asthma spasms. It was happening like once in a year or two. Right now i'm suddenly having this problem for like 3 months but now for every single days though. In the past 3 months I had about total of 30 days of this heavy breathing stuff. Now I want to tell you how it happens. I was starting to breath heavily really randomly. Like when I was waking up in the morning when I had a little sleep, whenever i'm going through strong stress, when I workout (but it doesn't occur every time. Like once out of 5 times). Like 2 weeks ago I was totally fine but then I started breathing a little badly when I ate instant ramen and a boiled egg though I managed to sleep without much discomfort. The next day I ate omelet and I felt discomfort straight as I finished and about in 2 hours I started breathing so heavily. With the medicines I managed to sleep somehow. Next day I wasn't breathing thay badly but then I ate the ramen and lately at night I was breathing so heavily that I couldn't sleep. 12 am to 5 am I was going through tough condition so I couldn't sleep well as I was waking up over and over. I called an ambulance. They gave me that asthma thing that you inhale and gave me an injection as it didn't help that much. Then I was fine and today i'm starting to feel the heavy breath again. (also wanna mention that every time I have this problem my breath makes whistling sound and i'm having something in my throat as I cough it comes out. But not every time I manage it to spit it out. I guess it's called mucus. As I cough and I do cough intentionally so I breath normally for 5-8 seconds) the thing I said about the food I was thinking that i'm allergic to them? I don't know cuz I grew up eating such. But I came to this conclusion since I was totally fine for 2 week and I was eating meat and potatoes and salads. I don't know what's happening. Ambulance even said they can't tell what it is so I need to visit a doctor and have a full research about my condition. Can you tell me what it could be? (also I was smoking cigarettes 5 months ago and stopped 2 months ago. But I was fine then. I stopped it just because I didn't catch the vibe. Also want yo inform you that i'm smoking pure marijuana. Sometimes tho. Not everyday. And I usually smoke when i'm fine and even afterwards. Not even the next day I don't have any problems. And sometimes this heavy breaths occur on its own. No idea why. Most of the times when i'm going to bed.) I was also drinking pills for allergy for those 2 weeks that I mentioned when I was ok and before I drank them the day before I was having the symptoms. That's pretty much all. Patiently waiting for your answer. Thank you!
