Hi wanderer and welcome, ask your GP or nurse for a nebulizer machine or anything that would make your breathing easier. Hope this helps let us know how you are doing and take care.😊 Bernadette xx

If you have emphysema then the problem experienced with shortage of breath is the problem of getting air out of the lungs. If this is t happening then you cant get air in. You need to try pursed lips breathing, breath in through the nose then breath out through pursed lips. This should be longer than the in breath. You can panic when short of breath and this makes it worse, pursed lips breathing can therefore be helpful in relaxing you.
