I am so happy for you. Thanks for sharing this good news. Many have wondered & even asked if stages & percentages can improve. This is the first positive result I've heard & I'm celebrating with you. I'm hopeful myself. I've made bad choices in the past...now I'm making better ones. I began with mild copd. Next April I have my repeat pft & look forward to hearing the results.

God bless you as you go forward, one day at a time. Terri

I am curious as to when I ate edibles it slowed my breathing down so much I thought I was going to die. I have since stayed away from it. Which kinda bums me out as i was a pot head for decades. i am stage four very severe 29% lung function I have been on oxygen since 2006 and range between 3 LPM CF and & 7 LPM CF when having an exacerbation. I am also using a Trilogy non invasive ventaltor to help me breath at times and every night. do tell how it makes you feel. and good on you for getting better. i did pulmonary rechab for 4 years but since cleaning out my deceased sisters house when she passed i got a lung infection and have been fighting it on on and off for over a year now.

Try a couple of drops of THC OIL under your tongue. My lung capacity was 3% LOWER than yours when I started to take control and turn things around.

valiejean in reply toeagle313

I have to be on a triology or non invasive ventilator due to exacerbation at the moment. May give it a try if I can ever kick the infection question was did it SLOW your breathing down even more. Currently on 7 LPM

eagle313 in reply tovaliejean

NO. Didn't slow my breathing !! I'm at the point now of going from 30 days for almost a year, to every 90 days, to the last thing my respiratory therapist said was "see you in 6 months" !!!!!!!

Congratulations! Can you please tell us more about Cannabis oil (where to buy, how to use) and clean eating? Also what exercises? (you should write a manual!)

just marketing himself and an attempt to get "clicks" on his youtube channel. Posts like these should be deleted from the forum.

I’m confused, my gp told me that copd is not reversible, so does that mean she was wrong or you don’t have copd?

eagle313 profile image
eagle313

When they were satying that - "decades" ago....no one had treated the condition with CANNABIS OIL - I am "reversing" !!

Hi eagle313 - your extensive, list approach to sharing your successes is fantastic. I am feeling the need to share my successes too, although this forum may not be the proper area since I do not have COPD.

HOWEVER, breathing is important, and mine has improved exponentially during my two year journey that was kicked off by a simple finger prick blood test for food sensitivities.

Here is my list of lifelong symptoms that have gone away and only reoccur when I eat the three foods I am moderately sensitive to or when I eat or drink things with added sulfite.

1. Asthma (finally off ten years of Singular and inhaler)

2. Psoriasis (which is related to inflammation)

3. Allergies (moderate reaction to almost everything, such as fur, grasses, trees, pollen, etc. - no more daily antihistamine.

Thanks again for inspiration - Cheers.
