Guys I have a big problem,
I have high Acth and Cortisol labs, and a pituitary gland Tumor.
Can Cushings disease cause respiratory muscle weakness or breathing problems?
My oximeter shows 98% spo2
My autonomic breathing is not functioning so good.
I am breathless even if I am lying down.
When I am breathing in a mask or in a paper bag, it calms my nervous system down to not breathing too much oxygen(hyperventilation).
I have to force me to breathe deeply and satisfyingly.
I have also Hypothyroidism with very good Tsh, and ft3, ft4 levels. tsh under 1 to 0, ft3,ft4 70-100% of the reference range.
What can I do?
