Strange Sensation In Lungs And Wing Pipe, Painful And Fluttering, Hernia In Diaphragm, Breathlessness, Over Weight. Help?
Hi, I have a strange sensation in the upper part of my lung, wind pipe!
The other night I had a strange sensation, not only painful, fluttering in the upper part of my lung and then a terrible heartburn followed.
I was painting with acrylic paint now, and I feel it's difficult to breath, feels really unnatural and scary.
I also have a terrible hernia in my diaphragm, can't eat at night, AND I stopped breathing twice one night, two episodes right after another. I am overweight, but not obese.
Does all of this happen because of the hernia?
