Emphysema query
Anyway the short of it is after having a ct scan the radiographer reported no clot, but the doctor has said he see’s
emphysema
changes. what is the likely hood that
emphysema
would cause symptoms so suddenly? And if something has shown on my ct scan can
emphysema
look like anything else?

Exercising
Hello As you all know I have
emphysema
and asthma; I’ve been put on medication and have not smoked for 3 and a half months. If you are in a position to do exercise, what exercise do you all do to try and keep yourselfs fit and active? And what keeps you motivated? Exercising is my next goal!

Confused and needing help!
Hi Everyone, I have
emphysema
, stage 3/4 - 34% Fev 1 - last year. I have been dismissed by the lung consultant and went to see my GP, as I was having possible side effects from Spiriva Respimat.

Yippie!!!
I saw my consultant yesterday about my
emphysema
and copd. He asked how I was coping with my medication, which I have been on for nearly a year now. I said it seemed to fit the bill as I am usually feeling quite good.

Breath Easy groups
I have severe COPD, both chronic bronchitis and
emphysema
. I contacted the BLF about setting up a Breath Easy group in my area. I help run a friendship group with over 1600 members so thought it would be a great thing to start up for myself and the others in the group with lung conditions.

Had my new breathing test
She told me my
emphysema
/asthma is "mild." She listened to my heart and lungs. I had an x-ray just two months ago. She says my lungs are clear. So now my doctor seems to agree with everybody else that a lot of this "is in my head."

Very Severe Emphysema at 41, but feel OK
I’m 41 and recently diagnosed with very severe
emphysema
. It’s come as a big shock, to an extent. I’ve never been a big smoker, mostly socially, but have had a long history of asthma and allergies affecting my breathing.
