I was taken of my migraine abortive because of angina and breathing problems, and while it is true the Imitrex made these a whole lot worse, the symtpoms have not entirely gone away. The chest pains do not concern me overly, since they are not that bad... I think more a result of my heart palipatations and skipped beats lately. What does concern me is the breathing issue, as it is nothing I have had prior to a bad bout of bronchitis, or is it a symptom of FMS.
It basically feels like my chest gets heavy. I can breath in fairly well, sometimes with some wheezing, but when I exhale it seems like nothing is coming out. It comes on suddenly, only lasts a few minutes and occurs every couple of days. It happens when I am lying down, when I am sitting it is just more a heavy feeling and awareness of breathing a little off.
My doctor essentailly brushed this off as a Imitrex side effect, and certainly a lot worse when I was taking the injections and a lot more frequent. I mentioned it was persisting, but she has not investigated it any. So essentially I am wondering if this is like asthma, or has any idea what this might be?
