Hello, my name is Dionne. I have had severe uncontrolled asthma since I was 28yrs old. In 2013 I was diagnosed with Emphysema. I don't need oxygen therapy because of air trapping, instead I use 5 inhalers (Advir, Quvar, Spiriva, Atrovent,& ProAir). I also have to take 10-20mg of Prednisone daily

Is a peak flow of 200 low after a nebuliser?
Hi all i don't have a asthma plan and due to a lung operation I don't know what my normal is the reason I'm asking is I'm on antibiotics and nebuliser but not much improvement I'm missing 1/3 of my right lung and I've been told that I have fluid in my lung but it shouldn't bother me the reason I'm on

I was recently diagnosed with stage 4 non small cell lung cancer. I must admit that it is still shocking myself and family and friends. I am 44 years old and I'm just not ready to go anywhere. I am hoping that through this site and all my outside support along with God that I find the strength I need

I have had my bottom right lobe removed due to non small cell lung cancer and a blood clot on July 1, 2015. I am still in pain from the surgery and it still hurts my lung to breathe. It hurts so badly... Does anyone else have this issue?

Lung transplant referral 1st appointment
Two weeks ago my consultant told me that my % had dropped 10% to just below 30%. That my ct scan was clear but copd and my echocardiogram was clear but I wasn't suitable for coils. That because I haven't smoked for 3yrs I thought I was alpha 1 antitrypsin deficiency person because no control even on

New lung issues.
The last CT did show a mild
collapsed
lung
with no focal consolidation, but that's it. I don't see how my lungs could have deteriorated so much in the last two years. Either that or the other CT scan is not the one that is needed to detect lung disease.

Possible Restrictive Lungs Disease.
The mild whatever thingy is a tiny
collapsed
lung
, and the other thing is just a 1.1 CM lymph node. Can a CT scan change that much in the past two years? Did they miss things because they were only looking for another blood clot?

collapsed
lung

Knackered!
Of late I have been absolutely tired like never before. I just want to go to bed. I sleep about 8 hours and wake up shattered. If I go somewhere I just feel like sleeping. This all started after I had a really bad bout of aches and pains all over .... this was like never before and I could hardly walk

Help
Hi, I am new to this, and am searching for a miracle to help my daddy, who, on March 31 of this year was diagnosed with lung cancer. The tumor in his left lung is 8cm x 5cm, and severe emphysema in the right lung, making surgery to remove the tumor out of the question. He will not do chemotherapy,
