Having a lung function test is a way for the doctor to find out what lung condition you are suffering from if any at all. Emphysema is just thing it could be under the group of things that make up COPD so wait for your result and then get your GP to explain to you exactly what it is

Hi I was the same scared like you when I got the test it showed I'm slightly worse than before I've got server emphysema I asked about any differant inhalers I'm now on 3 in 1 trimbo inhaler yes it does help but I still get breathless but not as bad as before you should ask if you can have the TRIMBO INHALER.
