Common Questions and Answers about Normal weight of lungs

I would also like to add, back in July I had a scare because I was losing a lot of weight so I had a physical done and they took x-rays of my lungs. My doctor said my lungs were clean but I don't know how x-ray tests work. Do they have to be looking for a specific disease to catch it or can you simply see that the lungs are good just from looking at the image?
Weight loss is mostly about what you eat. The exercise part is to help keep you healthy and active, keep your heart strong and help speed up your metabolism and preventing injury from lack of movement in body parts, especially those we don't use every day during normal activities.
It's important that you're getting the right nutrition and calories to keep your body functioning properly. If cardio is difficult, try doing some short interval training, bodyweight movements.
Accordingly, blood perfusion was adequate to revitalized heart cells and heart wall movement returned to normal or near normal functionality with a normal ejection fraction of 59%. I was in ICU for several days to normalize the oxygen level within the pulmonary system. On discharge from the hospital, I never had any further congestion (heart related) or otherwise.
Was just recently put on Lasix in past week because of problems with fluid in lungs, and have been taking it religiously every day. My weight is the same, but I can't take as deep of a breath as yesterday, I'm slightly wheezing, and I can feel fluid come out of my throat with every little cough. This feels exactly how it felt when I was first diagnosed with CHF a month ago. Is it possible to have fluid filling your lungs but not gain weight?
What you describe sounds like asthma. Asthma is a very treatable disease. A person can lead a perfectly normal life with asthma and it will not damage your lungs in a permanent way. The puffer will help you to breathe easier and is not at all addictive.
Good luck.
not gaining weight well, and sweating. A VSD of that size is usally associated with high blood pressure in the lungs. That can cause long term damage to the lungs that can impact on long term life expectancy. If that does not improve, usually open heart surgery is undertaken in the for 6-12 months of life to prevent long term high blood pressure in the lungs.
These can include high blood pressure in the lungs (pulmonary hypertension) caused by compression of blood vessels by scar tissue, or right sided heart failure, due to the heart having to pump harder to circulate blood through the lungs.7 Any of these things can lead to the cause of death. Patients with IPF can die from heart failure, respiratory failure, or collapsed lungs.
A healthy 63 year old female of normal weight, who had a normal heart checkup 3 years ago, I had to do some unusually strenuous work one day last week, involving hauling many buckets of water. That evening, I felt like I couldn't take in enough air; and trying to inhale deeply hurt in the area of the lungs. As I currently have no insurance or physician, I just tried resting. It was better the next day and the symptoms disappeared in another day.
Yeah, I've been taking insulin 3 times a day for GD. I was definitely surprised when they said he was measuring at 31 weeks instead of 28 weeks 3 days. lol I am really hoping his lungs are going to be where they need to be when he gets here. I was hoping to have another vaginal delivery but it looks like I might have to have the c-section if he gets over 8 lbs. I see my OB next Friday so I think she will tell me what she is thinking we should do about delivery.
Yes it's normal because of the ectra weight and strain on your body. At least, that's what my doctor said. Take nore breaks and lie down if needed.
Ive had a really bad week this week im 53 severe copd(empysema) not on oxygen, this past couple of weeks I can feel my lungs pressing on my ribs I have been told my lungs are enlarged, but they feel so uncomfortable its like a dull weight also in the centre of my chest then dull around the bottom, my breathing is not very good at present, does anyone know how i can help myself is it mucus collected that i can feel, please help if you can.
thanks.
Is it normal to feel like somethin is sitting on your chest it juat comes and goes and i find it hard to breath
Yes i am over weight my hight is 5-8" but my weight is near about 210 pounds
doctor said i have panic disorder
Afterwards the doc told me that I was presenting with 100% whiteout, which means my lungs were completely full of fluid......I was well on my way to drowning in my own body fluids.
I was one of the lucky ones because the breathing treatment worked for me. I know of several people in the same situation who weren't so lucky and they died...drowing in their own fluid. So, my point is, it's nothing to mess around with, it can kill.
