Broken rib from coughing.
I was diagnosed with COPD –

about 3 years ago. They took X-rays after I finally went to the doctors with a “smokers” cough which I had already for quite some years. I smoked for 40 years, but gave it up a few months after I was diagnosed. Apparently I have severe

Best sort of humidifier for dry indoor heating through freezing Canadian winter ahead
I have mildish
emphysema
and am worried about the effect of low air humidity from indoor heating on my breathing. Do I need a humidifier? And if so, which sort - warm air, cool air or an ultrasonic? Thanks!

Ipf/emphysema
Hi everyone I will apologise in advance for this moan! My health has definitely become worse this year & I catch myself thinking next year I’ll do whatever then thinking but I might not be here then! This illness is limiting because I don’t know how quickly I’m deteriorating or how much time I have left

Lung volume reduction
I have stage 3
emphysema
and met the criteria for a lung volume reduction operation back in November 2019. I haven't heard anything since because of covid. I feel like I have been forgotten about and seem to be getting worse.

Advice/ Questions on Alpha-1
My maternal grandfather died in his 50s of
emphysema
. My maternal uncle is also a carrier of Alpha-1 (apparently my mother isn't). I currently live abroad and was able to get the blood test for Alpha-1, which showed I was low... 86 mg/dL (range 103-202mg/dL).
