PVCM? My pulmonologist suggested that I self administer a breath flow meter at pool side. Normal reading for my age/ is 550. During an 80 lap work out (mostly 100 pull/ 50 kick as I still can not do more than 50 free without gasping for air) I monitored a steady flow of 450 over 12 trys. I will go in next week for a final pulmonary test to determine if I have EIB. So far, after 17 days, in hailed steroids and albuteral are not working. Does any one know about PVCM? (paradoxial vocal cord motion disorder)
I think my husband has a cross country runner diagnosed with this. In one session w/a speech/language pathologist, he improved greatly. He is learning to control his throat/vocal cord as he runs. He has more sessions scheduled in Columbus, OH.
