Thought it would be interesting to see if there are patterns of fvc, bi-pap and mobility.
What is your fvc% , hours/24 on bi-pap and amount of mobility?
My fvc is 57%, 14/24 hours on bi-pap, mobility-able to walk ok but pressure in rib cage and shortness of breath when standing or exerting keep me just walking from chair to chair at home.
What's yours?
I am asking as the pulmonologist thinks it should be easier to breathe for me than it is and thinks something else might be going on. Anyone else have the pressure under rib cage and shortness of breath when standing/walking?
