Sputum
I have
emphysema
- FEV1 - 30% and was wondering do I ask to do another sputum test or what? Any advice would be most welcome. I find this site so useful - it keeps me sane. Regards, Anng

Nebuliser
My COPD is both Chronic Bronchitis and
Emphysema
, so I assume it’s to do with the latter of the two 🤔 Anyway, my wife has suggested that we buy our own nebuliser. You can get them for about £50 - as I don’t know anything about how they work what are your thoughts? 😊😊

Fatigue
I've had
emphysema
for about 7 years , I stopped smoking for 13 years. My main problem now is fatigue. The slightest physical effort makes my heart rate race and after a couple of minutes I need to rest for a couple of minutes. I feel exhausted all the time.

Have I got the early stages of pneumonia or am I being paranoid?
I have severe/very severe
emphysema
and am a bit underweight, so I hope I don't sound too paranoid. Looking forward to hearing from you more knowledgeable folks.

Guilty feelings and anxiety
With me it’s
Emphysema
and Chronic Bronchitis. Last week I was also diagnosed with IPF following a spell in hospital. When they put me in the ambulance, I was terrified. I genuinely thought I was dying.
