Another with EIA - it's amazing how much better I ride with cooperative lungs. Or as my XH Paramedic would say, "better living through chemistry". You have a LUNG problem, get to a doctor, it can be treated, and you'll ride much better. My office team knows my lung sounds, apparently I do a lovely immitation of a frieight train, but when I suddenly stop making noise is when they get worried.

Part of it is having the right medication levels on board, and part of it is learning to control your breathing. It took a chance lesson with an asthmatic cyclist (a really good rider too) who taught me to control my breathing, forcing myself to breathe in, breathe out, Say-the-words. Funny thing is I used to do the same thing to my asthma patients when I worked ambulance.

Good luck! Let us know what the Doc says. You can ride and breathe at the same time.
