Hi I've read lots of information on the basic things that come along with this disease but it didn't mention things like my husband can't handle and fumes at all it takes his breath away like he has asthma. Or like he was showering and the water ran cold a lil it was luke warm but it's like the water took his breath too. Washing his hair as the water ran down his face it was as if he was gasping for air and it was not hard water or alot of water like a rain shower. Just trying to understand why this is.
Our last als clinic he had a PFT done and she didn't give us all the information but she said his lungs were like 43 percent
So his Neurologist called and he said he was surprised his numbers were that low. Now my husband back hurts a lot, I think it's because of the percentage of his lungs capacity. On top of that he has trouble using his bipap smh they have changed the settings so many years times and he still not using it. To me he's causing the disease to progress faster than it will. So I just want to know can I hear from some ppl who have had experience in this. His diagnosis has been since May 13th 2015. Thanks in advance
