Newly diagnosed - symptoms suddenly very bad
He was diagnosed after a CT scan showed
emphysema
at the top of his right lung. But at that consultation he was just referred to the Royal Free respiratory department. No medication apart from a course of antibiotics and steroids.

Smoking. !!!
I am still a smoker with
emphysema
and two weeks ago I went to the Dr, not my usual one at the practice, and when I asked her for Zyban which I have used before and it made me stop smoking, she said I had to attend smoking cessation.

Skipping meds
From everything I've read here, I think I'm a pretty typical COPD patient, with moderate
emphysema
/asthma. Maybe even mild/moderate. Which is to say that sometimes I feel OK and sometimes I feel quit lousy.

Coughing affects my head
I have stage 3 COPD, chronic bronchitis and
emphysema
. My cough has become a lot more intense lately, to the point where I very often become dizzy, shaky and light headed for a few seconds - and briefly feel like I may pass out. Is this normal in anyone else’s experience?

Prednisolone
Please advise: is anyone with
emphysema
on a maintenance dose of prednisolone? I have been prescribed this over and over again for short 5/7 day periods. I am living a rollercoaster existence and am extremely depressed.
