I've been wanting to start a blog for a long time now, but I'm spending too much time trying to formulate exactly what it will contain.... Posts about my work, home, art, etc.
I think it will be a mix.
For now, though, I'm going to just log gasps. Here's the deal:
For eight years now, I've had these random, hiccup-like occurrences that are quite disturbing. I suddenly feel my chest get tight, and gasp, uncontrollably, just ONCE. The gasps vary in volume, pitch, etc. but always leave me a bit short of breath. I quickly return to normal and it's like the gasp never occurred. This happens several times a day with no rhyme or reason! So. I'm logging it.
Today:
11:17 a.m., loud and sudden--- drinking water
1:00 p.m., mild--- chest tight, short of breath
1:28 p.m., high pitch, very tight chest, feeling of food in throat
To be continued!
Does it always happen as an interruption on the inhale side? That is, in the middle of inhaling, is there the pause with associated tightness, then the release with the abrupt gasp?
