Although I dont have a few drinks often it seems that when I do My breathing is worse for a day or two .. Is this my imagination ?
Nope, it's not. Alcohol is a depressant, and reduces the strength of respiration in most people, so you're breathing is less than normal.
Probably is not your imagination and does not mix with any medication. I would imagine you would become dehydrated and that would make it worse.
Easy breathing
@A MyCOPDTeam Member...
I never drank alcohol with any dignity, grace or discipline...
I was fortunate I was able to stop when I did or I wouldn't be alive today.
Not everone who drinks is an alcoholic.
My concern re MyCOPDteam members with depression; no amount of alcohol should be consumed if a person takes anti depressants. Bad pairing! Can be dangerous, sometimes, even fatal.
Not my opinion. It's FACT.
SuZz, just sharing
We don't drink
alcohol is a depressant and having a occasional beer is fine. I do have a couple with my husband but it Doesn"t effect me at all.
