Doe anyone else here have tracheomalacia?
I ask because I have just been confirmed (as in today) as having it - thankfully only mildly and currently not needing treatment for it, probably the congenital form, but I was wondering what sort of q's I need to be asking my consultant (severe asthma consultant with a specialism in tracheomalacia) when I next see him. (I had been adopting the head in sand approach up until confirmation of it, so whilst I know the symptoms etc, I haven't really discussed it with anyone other than my husband.) Today was not a day to be asking q's - I was a little too woozy from the sedation from the bronchoscopy.
He also diagnosed another condition in my throat which needs an immediate referral to an ENT consultant for surgery quite urgently...
But I know he is happy for me to continue staying fit and cycling etc, which from my point of view is a good thing.
