Abiraterone and Breathlessness
In the meantime, I saw a Respiratory Consultant and was told that, apart from a very light touch of
Emphysema
, my lungs were in good condition. So, has anybody else experienced breathing problems when taking Abiraterone?

Potassium
A bit of background: I am a severe COPD sufferer with
emphysema
and bronchiectasis. I also have arrythmia and aortic stenosis. So my breathing is bad. But some time back I was checked and found to have low potassium.

CCF and AAA
His death certificate stated Congestive Cardiac failure and
Emphysema
and Hypertension. About six months before he had a successful repair of an abdominal aortic aneurysm . Is this a dangerous operation on someone with CCF or would the CCF have started after the operation ?

persistent pneumothorax
Do have subcutaneous
emphysema
as well. What happens if the pneumothorax doesn’t resolve ? Team mentioned over the weekend the challenge since I really only have middle lobe and part of upper left. Waiting for my doctor. Was so relieved and now anxiety has spiked again.

clotting whilst on warfarin for clots in lungs.
Ct scan revealed very mild dry bronchiectasis and very mild
emphysema
- both too mild to be classed as COPD. Was discharged from hospital as they concluded that my breathing problem was caused by 2.5kg weight gain through lockdown and de conditioning through lockdown.

Arm stiffness
I had a few post surgery complications including surgical
emphysema
which is now subsiding. I also had an air leak so have been discharged home with a chest drain 😢 the worse part is I can't move my arm it's so stiff and painful it feels like I'm holding a brick under my armpit.

CT scan 10 weeks ago showed pulmonary fibrosis and emphysema.
That came back showing I have in fact got pulmonary fibrosis and
emphysema
. I had to wait 9 weeks to get results from gp. Apparently as I have no new symptoms I won’t see a lung specialist for months. I was put on routine waiting list at same time as scan was requested and that’s 12 weeks now.

Lung reduction
I went in on the 20th April to have the op the next morning, to cut along story short I had the op but had a bad air leek which caused surgery
emphysema
and so back in to surgery. Five weeks later I was home, its a lovely hospital to be in just a shame I had problems.

Very scared
I was diagnosed with minimal
emphysema
almost three years ago when I was 46 years old and I've been without symptoms all this time. Just recently started to feel a bit shortness of breath and I'm now in panic mode.

Spirometry non-obstructive, CT shows scarring but no fibrosis/legions/bronchiectasis so what’s wrong???
No evidence of focal lung lesion, pulmonary
emphysema
or pulmonary fibrosis. Large airways appear normal, as does everything else. It also notes later there is no bronchiectasis. So I am really thrilled.
