Looking for new treatments and research on COPD

Diagnosed with COPD in Nov 2016, I looking for new treatments for COPD that deal with the disease not just symptoms of the disease

Sadly I agree with roey123 there are no treatments at present. From all my reading of the research then stem cells appear to be only light in the darkness at present. However there is a large amount of research into new treatments.

One of a kind, I know the feeling...but I was wondering if you had been on a pulmonary rehab course, this can help with an understanding of lung conditions and build confidence and stamina.

A nutritious diet and graduated exercises can help too, the BLF have a free exercise CD .

And keep reading and posting here for friendship, inspiration and help. Fingers crossed soon there will be a breakthrough remedy.

I have taken the pulmonary rehab course and found it very helpful.
