As you fill this in and realize how much is affected by your indoor air; maybe you should try an ionizing/ozone air purifier like I have.Its removed all respiratory ills in our mily with 8 children 19 down to two. I know breathing in that purified air night after night in and out, in and out has healed our lungs and even strengthened our immunes systems.My air purifier is no medical machine, but its sure amazing how good you can feel breathing in purified air thats cleaned like fresh air outdoors.

Coughing / Throat clearing

I just recently went to a Cardiologist,to learn the results of a stress test, an ultrasound on my heart, and a sleep study, and to find that the right side of my heart is double the normal size and that the left side (obviously) is working harder, and they believe I may have restrictive lung disorder. I am very weak, and tired all of the time, and missing work, I am an office Supervisor. I am wandering what has caused this, and am curious to know any detailed info that someone could share with me. I have been a smoker,

(very light) for 17 years, and quit the moment I received these results. (I am 34 years of age.)

Whether your husband will ever be able to do physical labor again, will depend on the cause(s) of his problem.

Restrictive lung disease is somewhat complicated to explain. I could go into great detail, but may end up confusing you. Here is a great webpage I found for you:

Lack of Concentration

Asthma

Cystic fibrosisof the lung tissue (Scoliosis, Asbestosis, Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis) This is when the lung tissue loses its elasticity and becomes more stiff and fibrotic. Hence, the lungs dont stretch and expand as well. Another cause is chest deformities. Some things that can cause this would be scoliosis, kyphosis, or kyphoscoliosis.

Snoring

other things forgot to mention is occupational exposure to asbestos, coal mining, fumes, and other dusts. the issue needs further detailed history with his physician

Headaches

Distressed...

it seems confusing here, flrestrictive cardiomyopathy prognosisuids in the lungs is likely heart ilure secondary to his previous heart attack, the other thing the stress test (if you mean cardiac stress test) is not the test to comment on lung function unless you mean Cardiopulmonary Stress Test which is different than the test which is usually done after heart attack as a risk stratification. in general terms restrictive lung diseases are those in which the expansion of the lung is restricted either because of diseases of the lung tissue, the pleura which is the layer that cover the lungs, the chest wall or the neuromuscular tissues. the possibilities really wide. the lung diseases like sarcoidosis, hypersinsitivity pneumonitis, cryptogenic organising pneumonia, eosinophilic lung disorders, drugs like amiodorone which is a heart medication, conective tissue disorders and vasculitic disorders like systemic sclerosis, lupus, churg strauss syndrome, rheumatoid arthritis, and many other causes. the pleura is unlikely the case in your husband, chest wall diseases basically any abnormal chest walll structure and shape, neuromuscular like ALS, GBS. in your husband its very important to know what is his heart function and make sure that the restriction is not related to his poor heart function if found (by doing echocardiography). if thats not the case then CT chest is indicated after reviewing his old chest X-rays, and reviewing his history in more detail to narrow the diffrential diagnosis with him. tests may include (guided by history) blood work for connective tissue diseases

, pulmonary function tests, and CT chest, bronchoscopy if indicated and even surgical lung biopsy if no conclusion achieved after all of above.

Restrictive cardiomyopathylung disease causes lower lung volumes over all. There are several things that can cause this.Fibrosis

COMMON TRAITS OF INDOOR AIR POLLUTION

as for air purifiers, i am sure they would be helpful.however i have read that the ozone type are harmful to people with resp. illness.i would never get that kind, they would be bad for all of us, and my birds too.

Neonatal cystic fibrosis screening

I have inherited gout, and fibromialgea , IBS, Acid reflux, and thyroid disease from my ther, which makes a diagnosis difficult because they have similar symptoms. If anyone can help, please!!! I need answers..

Sinus problems

Mold / Mildew in basement & bathrooms

Theres a ton more I could get into but its very confusing. And I dont want to overdraw the subject by copy-pasting stuff like most people do here.

Bad taste, looks like an answer when it isnt.

We still have no diagnosis.he had a bronchoscopy last thursday.we will get the results tomorrow.i will post here, if we have a diagnosis!crossing my fingers!

Stentwas put in.Now, about 2 years later, he got sick, chest x ray said not pneumonia, but he is very short ofbreath

I have a 21 year old son with asthma but since having an air purifier in my home that covers the whole house; Ive found it to help all my children even in the midst of this WI winter - weve had no colds or flu or other respiratory ills.Heres some obvious signs in your own home that can indicate a need simply for whole house air purification.

Abdomen - swollen

Try going through that.

Smoking

But in short,Restrictive

Breath odor, has fluid in the lungs, no strength, blood oxygen level is very low, we just got the results of a stress test and have been told he hasrestrictive

thanks so much for the links posted above, they were very helpful!!!

Is this some kind of promotion? I find it in bad taste when someone is suffering from an obviously serious disease that the cleanair advertisement comes in. Susseptable people may think an air purifier will cure a serious illness.

Sleeplessness / Light sleeper

Speak to your husbands doctor, he should be discussing what type of restricive lung disease you are dealing with. I am suspcous that it may be due to some occumational exposure. Either the chemicals or cauterizing metals involved with plumbing.
