In the past, patients undergoing cancer treatment were often told to rest and reduce their physical activity. This is good advice if movement causes pain or shortness of breath. But more research have shown that exercise is not only safe and possible during cancer treatment, but it can improve how well you function physically and your quality of life. Too much rest can lead to loss of body function, muscle weakness, and reduced range of motion. So today, we are encouraging patients to be as physically active as possible during cancer treatment.
This series of video provides useful tips to start physical activities, what to look out for when starting exercise, and some home exercises that can be done at your own space and time. Following these guidelines can help you lead a physically active lifestyle, thereby achieving the desired quality of life.

If you ever feel this just know you are not alone…
it's just a mental problem teach your mind that nothing is wrong you will not die and act normal and breathe normally after some seconds you will be able to take a deep breath and everything would seem normal to you.... Trust me it's just your mind creating bad scenarios train you to mind to stay calm. I was suffering from the same anxiety a year back but now everything is fine I don't ever get this feeling back again. hope this helps🙏🙏{ ignore grammatical mistakes if any:) }

In covid you suffer for few weeks or days ,and then either you die or survive. But in shortness of breath you'll die everyday
R you okay now?
@@aydenashraff7809 yes
@@m.u.c6467 what did you do? Help me please
i wish i bring my memories back that i dont have shortness of breath
I have severe asthma and non of my medications were working. I found the Buteyko method and got rid of half my medications and regained my health to where I was feeling 20 years younger--I'm 74 now and have been using the B. method for over 20 years. I will also try the pursed lips tip--thanks for the video.
the first step really helps me. feeling a little short of breath due to possible gastric, bloated stomach, feel a lot better after doing it a few times.
I couldn’t breathe before because of anxiety felt so weird but surprisingly after doing these excersies few time after I could do crazy!
You have anxiety? Me too and im always scared
@syaahirrhsm3555 same, I had it before and thanks to GOD It went away. I know GOD will heal us again just trust in HIM🙏

Thank you once again Dr Omole on TH-cam for this information. Since following you (for some years now), my kidney stage results has decrease from stage 3 to stage 1. You saved me from dialysis. Thank you and please keep the videos coming!! God Bless 🙏🏽
I’m 50 years old ...I get that feeling where I feel like I can’t get a full breath in. As is when I breathe, I’m doing so with all my might but can’t get the ‘muscle or lung relax sensation “ when a full breath would normally come in. Then every tenth or fifteenth breath or so it clicks and the lungs relax. I’m then fine for a moment as my body relaxes from getting the whole breath and then just as I think it’s done, it starts again. It’s not even as if if “worried “ about anything or even stressed. I’ll be just lying in bed watching tv and it comes out of nowhere fo no reason.
What are you doing about that?
So are you still having trouble? Have you gotten any help yet? I’ve got the same issue but I think mine might have something to do with my Gerd.
@@semperfi6098 when I first brought it up to my Doctor he listened to my breathing and couldn’t find anything abnormal. He shrugged it off as if it was all in my head-he described it as a cat chasing its tail (not sure what he was trying to say). I try to get the breath to finally snap by standing up and holding onto a countertop or something. Sometimes this helps. I noticed it got better when I would completely cut myself off from caffeine. So if you’re a coffee drinker, try going cold turkey for about a week and see if it goes away. That seemed to help for me.
@@TopGun_- Did you have COVID? I had COVID pneumonia last year (6/21). I actually had breathing issues when I had it. Not bad enough to be put on O2 but bad enough where I couldn’t catch a full breath for a while. I did get better but I’ve never felt 100% since then. Its kind of off and on when it happens. It’s possible that this issue is related to that. I could be suffering from long term COVID effects.
@@semperfi6098 actually this has been going on with me pre-Covid.... for like the past 5 years or so. I was sick back in February of this year (didn’t get tested for Covid) with something of an illness that I’ve never felt before. So, it may have been Covid that I had back in February but I’m not sure. Nonetheless, this breathing issue has been with me for a number of years now-way before Covid.
Thank you so much, I tried and the last method and feel relieved I always have pain in the chest and shortness of breath
I felt like that so I searched this video, it really does work
Omg this really helped!! THANK U
Top g I been doing all these and it hasn’t gotten better
Thank you..it really worked

Hopefully this will work I have a lot of shortness of breath and muscle aches now I know how to breathe
I was admitted to the hospital a month ago due to an allergic reaction and I've been having random shortness of breath this past month maybe because of anxiety. I really hope that's the cause and not an underlying lung or heart condition, but nevertheless I wish I eventually get rid of this because it sucks.
Hi I'm also having same issues and I have pantic attacks and anxiety I just hope the shortness of breathe is from that and not something serious. How are you?? I started a new anxiety medicine called Buspar I'm on my 4th day so really haven't felt a difference yet.
@@jessicamorris403 I actually went for a follow-up check-up and the doctor told me that it was probably asthma triggered by the weather, it's summer here and there are a lot of triggers everywhere (dust, pollen, etc.) He prescribed some medicines and vitamin c supplements and now I've been doing just fine and haven't experienced random shortness of breath these past few weeks.
So yeah I'm fine and I hope your medication helps you with this issue because this is such an inconvenience. 😢
@@jessicamorris403hey im struggling with my anxiety and im on Xanax..do you have any advice.
Thank you❤
M suffering from Covid19 right now and the first technique has helped.
Omg same. It has been 13 days and just now I happen to experience shortness of breath. I hope it will go away soon :(
Thank you
All of us here are in pain
@elliotsupremegentlemanrodg2597is it mental? I am scared!!! I dont know how to stop
@@matej9368 It is mental, you're not alone. Relax 😊
The fact that I can't find any useful video right now... I literally cannot breathe, it's like I forgot how to.
Bro same...
Deep breath for 6 seconds , keep breathe for 4 and release for 8.
Thanks it helps
Im down as urgent for a referral for respriotry team due to sarcoidosis on lungs but still wiating and in the meantime my breathing is worse and scares the hell out of me trying to control it everytime i move now just from getting up to another room i feel like im going to collaspe and have to quickly sit and try and breath slowly ..lost more weight have no energy to do the simpliest of things which means putting off going into the kitchen for food. Just feel like I'm wasting away .
i have covid barely getting better no more coughing but now i have shortness of breathe i hope it dosent last long
It will. Get help
@@Prince_Dracula i feel better now i dont have it no more
@@pxte.7007 congratulations

You lucky!!💛
I still have shortness of breath (3months after COVID)
i tried the leaning i think its working
thank you very much
I think if you have this disorder, which is hard to breath, you will recovered after 2 weeks.. edit: I'm not sure if it will go away just 2 weeks, I hope you have a speed recovery and have a check up..
I was having my dinner yesterday all of a sudden i started having this shortness breath , it was such a weird feeling , i literally had to yawn to strongly to breathe out properly , it really sucks , r u sure it will go away by 2 weeks?
@@arif7742 i'm sorry because I'm not really sure.. 2 months ago, I have this feeling like hard to breath because at first, it started with sneezing and then, I stop sneezing but it's hard to breath maybe because of the mucus in my nose.. but I just smell the vicks to relieve the hard to breath.. and after 2 weeks, it's get better.. but last week, my country started to rain almost every day, it's good thing alhamdulillah but at night, i suddenly sneez and my hard to breath came back.. so, right now, i think i hard to breath because of cold maybe
@@arif7742 but please pray for my fast recovery, and I pray that you will have fast recovery too and feeling better much more better than before.. and I hope that you go to a doctor, because doctor knows the disease better.. i'm sorry because even I don't really what's my disease😭
@@dianasyifaa How are you?
@@GovindSingh-vq1wk I think I'm good.. I don't know if I feel hard to breath because I have flu or sneezing
THANKS
Same with me I'm 19 and i was ironing my clothes suddenly i felt shortness of breath and a hot splash ran through my body and i felt like my brain isn't receiving good amount of oxgen and i couldn't stand ...we went to emergency and they said its because of stomach problem and they gave me some drips for my stomach and discharged me and said my oxygen level is okay ....its the 2nd time yesterday i went to emergency in a week..... I'm very tensed that I've to take med in such young age .
gasses problems?
Probably
Same here 😭
Had to leave school for this shit
so since i feel this way every 5-10 seconds would i use this technique
I have lung problems and my breathing is just so bad i am actually too frightened to get up as the sensation that over whelms me ,light headed ,and try as i might to control my heavy breathing its very hard i have to sit back down to regain my breath and dread doing it again which isn't helping myself due to living alone and only relying on myself to prepare my food and fresh water .its a nightmare i didnt see coming ..
How are you now? Please respond 🙏
A very effective technique
i have it rn and i feel like im bout to die from the pain
How long did it last? Having it rn and I am dying, been struggling for 4 weeks and doctors have no idea how to help
@@nidalalispahic4657 did you recover?

When i fall asleep i wake up feeling i cant breath and end up gasping. Then the rest of the night i cant sleep and i can even hear my heart beats loud. Two months back i had bad gerd and which led to anxiety. I too medicines for gerd but had fast heartbeats and short breath so god my heart checked but it came out normal. Now my gerd is fine but still when i fall asleep suddenly i cant breath
I feel like a old man in his 60s watching this
Im eating adhd medication and i cant inhale fully.
agh i was js laying down watching my phone then suddenly i had a hard time breathing. the vid calmed me down. at least ik im not dying. yet.
Same here,experiencing it now
i’m a 17 yr old athlete without asthma and yet i can’t take a single breathe without needing to wheeze, what am i doing wrong
Struggling bcs taking inhalers didn't work, so google said it might be dyspnea which is the closest thing to what i feel (air hunger). This just happened about one hour ago as im about to sleep i feel shortness & lightheaded. So i google this shi out, it might be closely related to acid reflux since im feeling so much air inside my stomach (bloating). And i just ate late at night for the first time in a week so might be it.
Good thing I am watching for future precautions coz damn those advertisements
The first time I had shortness of breath was a couple months ago. It just came randomly one night after I sneezed and lasted like a week before it went away. I was always an active person and in the summer after it happened I was playing soccer and stuff and no issues. Now a couple months later the feeling came back and still happens on and off. Sometimes it feels worse and other time it’s not so bad. Never went to get it checked out but don’t know what it could be.
What’s weird tho is that before it came back recently I played soccer a couple times with friends and my whole body felt exhausted and sore and then I felt shortness of breath. So don’t know if it could be asthma.
@@JulienDiTullioyeah you get an inhaler from cvs they work just fine if it gets worse just see a doctor for a prescribed inhaler
Same. It sucks. I would recommend getting it checked out tho.
it's just a mental problem teach your mind that nothing is wrong you will not die and act normal and breathe normally after some seconds you will be able to take a deep breath and everything would seem normal to you.... Trust me it's just your mind creating bad scenarios train you to mind to stay calm. I was suffering from the same anxiety a year back but now everything is fine I don't ever get this feeling back again. hope this helps🙏🙏{ ignore grammatical mistakes if any:) }
I had this happen recently too! Had a random sneezing fit like 6-7 times in a row, and for the past two weeks ive had shortness of breath. Enough to freak me out into a panic
Has this gone away for you at this point?
My family don’t even care😭
They said it because of that damn phone😃😂
Just had shortness of breath 😔
TYSM I CAN DO THIS TILL I REACH 18 TO FIGHT MY SICKNESS
Dyspnea can cause shortness of breath. Blood doesnt flow right through the heart arteries. Instead of steady flow it backflows into the artery then flows out causung immediate shortness of breath.
I have a really bad chest infection and its hard to breathe it feels horrible...
I have this now and I always have to yawn to make myself better but sometimes it does not work..
Are you okay? Because I want some help
You must try your cough syrup (2cap) mixed in hot water (double of cough syrup) before sleeping..
I also use this method.. after taking 2 or 3 days I don't need this at least for 2 weeks
Honestly I do all This things when I get the problem but never get relief. I feel like I am dying. I am still suffering(video method)
how are u now?

@@phantomreefer3684 that sucks to hear😔 was the pain consistently in the same spot everytime you took a breath and does your family have a history of heart problems if you dont mind me asking
It is not a shortness of breath it is a hitch in breath can somebody give me an answer ?
