Reiki
I have
emphysema
and mainly out of curiosity I thought I would see if the healer's energy has any effect on me. Has anyone else had a reiki session and if you have did you feel you got any benefit from it?

New boy needs helpful advise.
I am 73 years old and have
Emphysema
. I live in Cambodia and do not have access to specialist doctor. GPs are not experienced in
Emphysema
so I have to self treat. I cannot return to UK after few strokes.

Normal FEV1 , Normal FVC , Reduced FEV1/FVC - but Dr insists its NOT COPD
He ruled out
Emphysema
and also chronic bronchitis . His interpretation was this : No Obstructive pulmonary impairment. Mid flows slightly decreased. Flow volume loops indicate a variable intra thoracic airways obstruction. Lung volumes by nitrogen washout show no abnormality .

Lung volume reduction - what are your thoughts?
Hi guys, We’re updating our information about lung volume reduction as a treatment for
emphysema
. We know people have a lot of questions about the surgery, and about newer options like valves that are being researched.

NSCLC treatments that allow for steroids
After a long terrifying day my mom is stable on 12L of oxygen by nasal cannula (I’ve worked in the business for years but never saw this) but the long and short of it is this; her Keytruda is on hold indefinitely because she requires high doses of steroids to help with the
emphysema
and oxygenation.
