Good point Amy! Hmmm , you always give me great ideas for posts.
I’ve been walking regularly for about 3 years now and I think the longest Ive gone in between walks in that time period is about 16 days(and that’s only because I was in the hospital for 12 days.)

I’ve definitely over done it, but this year Ive cut my walking in half. Not so much because of my breathing, but because of the wear and tear on the rest of my body.

Huh. Those are some weird results, and I’m totally impressed that your anti-anxiety, pro-breathing measures worked, even if you ended up awake all night.

Here’s a question–what’s the longest you’ve gone without walking?

I have to give you credit for continueing to walk despite being SOB. I can’t see how excercise would be linked to your episodes 24 hours later, unless you are allergic to something. But even if that were the case, why 24 hours later? Good post.

I love your new header. The glowing lungs really speak to me.
I’m interested in your experiement, as I often ponder the relationship between my lungs and bicycling when I recover from a flare up. Generally, I suspect that my lungs enjoy having a task to do at that stage (a little ride) as long as it’s not too rigorous. But then, my lungs aren’t as twitchy as yours. Overally, I would agree that you don’t have sufficient data to pinpoint walking as a trigger.
Hope you feel better soon. That anxiety stuff is the worst.
