Off to see the neurologist
I've never heard of someone with
emphysema
sent off to a neurologist. Wish me luck. The first thing I'm gonna tell him is don't scare me any more than I already am. I already know I've got problems.

emotional
They know about my
emphysema
and asthma, and should be understanding as their both asthmatics themselves. On Wednesday it all got to much and I went to the doctors as it put me in a really low mood. They give me a taking therapy number, there’s a waiting list however.

Stopped meds experiment
I have been told I have
emphysema
with some asthma. Mild to moderate (I've been told both at different times by the same pulmonologist) I guess my real question is this: Is it foolish to stop inhalers even if you feel like you don't need them?

Hi from Northern Spain
I have severe
Emphysema
which is a pain. I live alone but have three daughters here who keep an eye on me. Sometimes it can get scary living alone but I want to keep being independent. Anybody from the same area? Chin up!

Newly diagnosed bullous emphysema & COPD
Hi all, newbie here who would like to share my recent diagnosis & hopefully meet some people who understand my condition. After repeated chest infections I eventually got a gp to agree to put me for a chest X-ray (apparently we don’t know our own bodies well enough to know something isn’t right!?) I
