Excessive yawning
First off, I am 49 and had a v, v bad stroke when I was 42. I am in a wheelchair as I am now virtually paralysed. (I type with 1 finger)Since my stroke, I have yawned more. I suppose it has got worse in the last year. I dont sleep much, 4 or 5 hours which is fine. Anymoe than that and I really yawn. My breath is quite shallow, due to my stroke. I have no control oer my ability to breathe. I even yawn in fresh air. The yawns are particularly intense. Can they be relieved?

This is just a forum. Assume posts are not from medical professionals.
you could start with a few doses of ACONITE 1M once every 12 hours for some 5 doses.
wait for some days and if it doesnt help, try RHUS TOX 200C same as above.
