Thomas Forestier provided a written account of his own experiences with the sweating sickness in 1485. Forestier put great emphasis on the sudden breathlessness that is commonly associated with the final hours of those who had contracted this disease. Forestier claimed in an account written for other physicians that "loathsome vapors" had congregated around the heart and lungs. His observations point towards a pulmonary component of this disease that was previously unknown.
