I Feel Like I Have Forgotten To Walk And Breathe
A MyCOPDTeam Member asked a question 💭

I have Bronchiectasis and a Secondary Immune Deficiency and Ehlers Danlos. All cause fatigue.
I am overweight. But since being in COVID isolation I feel that I have forgotten how to walk and breathe. I am now beginning to avoid going anywhere because I slow everyone down. I feel like I am choking when I am walking in a crowd. Has anyone else experienced this?
