Hi, Has anyone suffered pulmonary acidosis. How does it affect long term and is there a prognosis? Susie Q

The best info that is in an understandable form I found here

medical-dictionary.thefreed...

But the best person to ask is the person that gave you the diagnosis.

Thankyou Aunty Mary, the information on that site was really good. I was taken in hospital as an emergency and treated with a bi pap, no one really gave me a diagnosis I just heard that I was acedotic so looked for information about this. It was the most frightening experience I have had so obviously looking for advice to avoid it happening again and since I have been on oxygen 24/7 since I was hoping someone would be able to give me any idea of how long if ever I would be coming off it.

Must be more in the reports than a bomb with a name on given up before the specialist takes a hike leaving the thing in your arms it would not get their account settled.
