What Does Lumps In Throat Breathing Issues With Swelling In Hand Suggest?

Hello, I am thirty five and was diagnosed with copd a year and a half ago. Right now I am having a hard time breathing, the feeling of a lump in my throat, sweating, and a very uneasy feeling in my head. Like I m going to fall out. I live in tx so its hot but, it s about 84 degrees right now. My hands are swollen. Does anyone have a guess?

Hi,Dear thanks for the query to HCM virtual clinic.
I studied your query in full details.I understood your health concerns.
With whatever details are given by you,the lump in the throat feeling indicates respiratory distress and hypoxia causing headache and is mostly due to Spastic episode associated with compromised lungs of yours.
The swollen hands with high temperature around indicates the pollengrains inducing this episodic attack of the respiratory distress.
With this you are advised to consult ER Pulmonologist who would treat it accordingly.
Hope this would help you to get rid of the anxiety with this query.
Welcome to HCM in this regard by any further query.
Have a good health and early recovery.
