Breathlessness with a cold, 9 months after chemo & radiation finished
hi, maybe someone will know about this. Last year when I had chemo and radiation I experienced a lot of breathlessness. It slowly went away after I finished treatment, for the most part. Now 9 month...

Hi @Karenhappyquilter, I quite often suffer from breathlessness when I get a cold particularly if I have a very runny nose and get crap (technical term) settling on my chest. Can happen overnight and in fact have a cold that has gone to my chest at the moment. It affects the bronchioles (branches of air sacs in the lungs) and can make you breathless. BUT if you're worried a visit to your go for peace of mind is invaluable. All the best lovely. Xx Cath
