Monty Posted July 7, 2014 #26 Posted July 7, 2014 Do you have alot of acid reflux? That can cause breathing issues. Alot of people find that 2 tsp of apple cider vinegar, mixed in water, helps with that. Worth a try anyway.
Barrycuda Posted July 8, 2014 #27 Posted July 8, 2014 Best wishes and good recovery to you Buddy!! Some on this site claimed to never have met you. Let me tell them about what I know about you. Buddy and his wife (Peg) will give you the shirts off their backs. He will stay with new riders/members as to not get lost or feel left out. He USED to let you sit on his GW when he had it, just because...He and peg are GREAT folks who you will instantly gravitate to. If and when you ever have an opportunity to meet them, it is a must. I miss seeing them. more importantly, I wish you a very speedy recovery, friend. get well soon
sarges46 Posted July 8, 2014 #28 Posted July 8, 2014 Thanks for letting us know how you are doing Buddy. Take care.

buddy Posted July 17, 2014 #32 Posted July 17, 2014 Up date Still no word as for what's wrong ? Had another bad spell the other night but wasn't as bad As of now I went from 269 down to 228 lbs since it started I can talk longer now but I still get winded pretty good still going to work but it's mostly pushing a ink pen for now As for Eureka Springs meet as things look we be taking the Solstice for now that is if I can ride that long ? Bad thing is the water pump went out on the Solstice couple weeks ago so it's been parked in garage as I could not afford dealer cost of 989.00 so I had the parts come in from Napa way way cheaper plus they put it on a hold ticket for me which really helps so I and my best friend will tackle it this weekend or should I say he will do it as I will try and help ? Worse part is the turbo system has to be removed So if it ain't one thing it's another Want to Thank everyone again for the well wishes and the ones who sent me cards as well
Condor Posted July 17, 2014 #33 Posted July 17, 2014 Had much the same issues with the same diagnosis 2 years ago. Couldn't walk from the car to the house without having to sit and blow for 15 minutes to catch my breath. They finally told me it was old age... OK so I'm getting old, but not that old. Anyway I had one of those portable poop test things and said what the 'H' and sent it in. Within a week they were scheduling me for a colonoscopy. The test was not good and 2 weeks later I was in the O/R. They found a big tumor. The surgeon estimated it was 8+ yr.'s old. Anyway it was benign, and I got a free appendectomy out of the deal. Today I'm doing fine, and was hoofing around on the top of Mt Hood in Oregon with the best of them at VW14. Hope they finally find out what's ailing you Buddy. Don't take no for an answer.....
GAWildKat Posted July 17, 2014 #34 Posted July 17, 2014 I agree with Condor and the rest about getting well soon. Have you been throughly checked for heart/lung issues? I have had asthma all my life but generally don't needs meds unless I'm sick with bronchitis. I've had every test under the sun for my heart and lungs in the last 14yrs (since I went on disability) and only last yr did I get diagnosed with congestive heart failure from tricuspid regurgitation. And other than needing a valve replacement in a few trs I have no idea what that means for me.
