In advance sorry for my bad english 
Hello,
I am 20 years old student, and I'm experiencing problems with breathing. It all started when I was 15 years old, I noticed that I started to breath differently, but the change was so minor that I didn't worry about it much. Still I went for a medical check-up and the doctor told me that I'm in great shape. She explained that my body is growying so does my lungs and that's why I experiensing oxygen loss - even back then I knew that this was just a way to get rid of me.
And by the years my breathing gone worse. This year I have to breath so deep that I would feel oxygen in my lungs and started to feel pain in my heart.
I was at numerous doctors
-One said that I may have asthma, so I started to use inhaler - didn't help. Then he thought that I have a minor asthma, so I used DIAPAM 10 mg - no help there either.
-Another told me that it may be coming from the stress, and he prescribed me XANOR 0,5 mg - didn't help, I just started to scrach my face. Then he prescribed me CIPRALEX 10 mg, had the same effect - scraching face.
So now I am using RETAFYLLIN 200 mg for three days straight and I don't feel any change.
- blood pressure is fine
- My heart was tested and it was cheked as IN GREAT SHAPE
- I have good blood oxygen
- I'm in good physical condition (I am 183 cm and I weight 72 kg)
- I have no pain in my chest
- My skin was tested for allergies and it came that I have none
- My blood was tested, and they didn't find anything wrong with it (my hemoglobin level is great)
- I do not smoke
- I notice that I have strong cough
I'll have more test do to me in August, but I don't want to wait that long.
May I add that my mother had breathing problems and it was solved by inhailing salt vapor threw her nostrils back when we lived in Russia(thats what the doctor prescribed there). So I even thinking of trying that. Although here in Finland majority of doctors says that NO asthma was cured by salt. And I have a cousin from my mother side, who has asthma and she use an a inhaler that helps her, lucky her.
I feel like nobody knows what I have, and sooner or later I'll be rushed to nearest hospital in ambulance.
