Anyone with diaphragm paralysis?

[Kennium]

Is there anyone else out there suffering from paralyzed diaphragms?
If so, what has helped you?
I have bilateral diaphragmatic paralysis, sleep apnea, and enlarged heart, small lungs, and I retain carbon dioxide which causes migraine headaches.
Is there anyone else suffering from the same symptoms?
What have they done for you?

Also I'm a 25 year old male with a history of asthma but I really don't think its that. I have this discomfort in upper center abdomen between ribs and stomach and it feels my airways are closed up... I'm so scared of what it could be I've tried symbicort rescue inhaler allergie pills nothing is helping. Its the worst on exertion
