Generalised morphoea and emphysema
It says: "Just a note to let you know the CT scan this lady underwent was relatively normal apart from some signs of
emphysema
." The letter was written on 9th June, received by me 24th. Am I going mad? Is this a reasonable way to let someone know they have another incurable progressive disease?

I have
Emphysema
, don't know what stage etc. I'm not very clued up on things at the moment as I'm still waiting to go on a rehab course as promised for this month, but not heard anything. So hopefully might get some sort of help and support.

The Wonders of Wythenshawe
The only possible downside is that said consultant believes i have severe
Emphysema
but wont be sure until he has had CT scan done(another bonus point)Also he believes my severe weight loss and lack of appetite could be a result of my over consumption of red wine?

Carbocisteine 375mg Capsules
My hubby has
emphysema
and on various medication. including his own nebuliser used 3 time a day. Until recently taking Carbocisteine capsules 2 x twice a day was working well but now does not. Going to try and speak to Dr tomorrow to see if we can increase to 2 x 3 time a day.

COPD/ or emphysema
My question is this, How do they diagnosis COPD as opposed to
emphysema
? Do your numbers have to be extremely low, or do they do a lung scan.... or something else?? This question has been bothering me...my dad got a diagnosis of
emphysema
from an x-ray. I never could understand that.

To ashamed to see my doctor
They did the scope to look inside my lungs and I did have COPD
Emphysema
. I followed up with the pulmonary doctor 1 time and went in for a pulmonary function test, but I didn't do the CAT scan. Why? Because I still smoke. I've heard people say you can't quit unless you really want to.

emphysema

Spirometry test
Joined last month when told I had moderate
emphysema
after a CT with contrast. Yesterday I had Spirometry test and nurse told me at the end that my lung function was at normal level which has rather confused me when I am struggling with going upstairs, shopping and even hanging washing out.
