Question

My lungs seem like I am drowning and can not catch my breath So why is it my Pulse meter reads 98? I am going to do a PFT but I feel like i can not catch my breath? I have a mild case of Cf but to me it is not so mild

I'm sorry you are feeling so short of breath. Definitely get that PFT and visit your doctor. This is a description of two types of presentations of COPD, but I think it's interesting and might be relevant. Pink puffers work hard to oxygenate and can have normal blood gas numbers.
