Thank you, been a roller coaster ride since being diagnosed with bullous emphysema, during tests they identified I was enemic, this is what was causing my shortness of breath, I would not have known I had copd if it wasn't for this.
Once they gave me a blood transfusion my irion, haemoglobin were fine and so was my breathing.
I've had 2 blood transfusions to top me up since 2011 and I'm doing ok.
I see my blood specialist every 3 months to keep an eye on things, I've had cameras out everywhere and biopsys taken and she still can't work it out, why my hemaglobin drops every 2 years.
