Emphysema
I've been on inhalers for a few years now. They are helping for a while then it's hard to breath. Worse after my heart attack and covid

mild emphysema
Diagnosed with
emphysema
in 2021. Fev1/fev has dropped from 65 to 61 in 3 years. FVC is 85% predicted. Get breathless walking. Can walk 420 metres in 6 minutes. Anyone know how quickly the fev ratio will fall/deteriorate? Medics seem vague on this. many thanks.

Emphysema
I have had
Emphysema
plus loads more problems. And wanted to know why the doctors don't get you in anymore for lung function tests like they use to.

Emphysema and Osteoporosis
I just wanted to ask if anyone has both
emphysema
and osteoporosis? If so, would you mind telling me what maintenance inhaler you use and what medication have you been prescribed for osteoporosis. I'm on Trimbow and not very happy about it, but don't know what alternative inhaler to request.

Lung health check picked up Emphysema and Lung nodule - feeling very frightened
by
emphysema
? He said I should contact my GP for an appointment to discuss the test results and he explained about Lung function tests etc, which my doctor can refer me for. I am worried sick, having googled the life out of
Emphysema
and the presence of a nodule.

Emphysema
Still not sure what it was although it says on a letter I received - moderate centrilobular emphyematous lungs with upper lobe predominance. 16th December had a spiro test and was told I didn't have
emphysema
I had asthma.

Another stupid question
I have CPFE (combined pulmonary fibrosis and
emphysema
) and have noticed that with the change in the weather my breathing has improved, however I seem to be struggling with a persistent cough and catarrh.
