Good morning everyone, I hope you all had a lovely bank holiday Monday. Can I ask if any COPD sufferers also have a condition called Gaucher disease?

Kind regards as always

Did they tell you what type they think you have? I do know it is genetic and that infiltration of Gaucher cells into the lungs that can cause emphysema. But that's about it. xx 👋
