PIP advice
I now have very severe
emphysema
in my remaining lung. I also suffer from rheumatoid arthritis, brittle bones, and in the last two years I was refused surgery on my spine.

Weight loss with emphysema
My question is: does this mean the
emphysema
is progressing more? Interested to learn some of the experiences of those of you with primarily
emphysema
(rather than chronic bronchitis which doesnt seem to have the same problem). And second question: how can I put on weight? Any tips welcome!

Friend or Foe ?
He especially likes diseases that slowly cripple you - like
emphysema
. He considers this disease great. Once he gets you to have this, you will give up all your other friends, family, career goals, activities - everything.

Trouble with inhalers
Anyway, earlier this year I had a video conference with a consultant from the Royal Brompton Hospital and it was very good and left me feeling like I may well have a relatively "Normal" future, perhaps without my symptoms getting worse, even though he has diagnosed me with stage 3

Bed wedge recommendations please
I have Asthma Bronchiectasis and
Emphysema
. I am thinking of buying myself a bed wedge as I am waking up at 6 in the morning very phlegmy and I also have acid reflux. I am just beginning to realise that the two are connected.

Thoughts on bilobectomy

emphysema
, it's a massive decision to make and I guess I'm looking for people's views. Thank you for taking the time to read this.

Alpha-1 antitrypsin deficiency
I now have
emphysema
and high white blood cell count. But my doctor says I no longer have alpha-1 antitrypsin deficiency. Is this possible??

Lung nodule biopsy.
I have asthma, chronic bronchitis & severe
emphysema
. I've been really lucky to have been referred for several clinical trials for the above. My recent visit to the hospital for testing showed a lung nodule had almost doubled in size.

Emphysema

Portable air con this summer?
I haver Aspergillus, Bronchiectasis and bullous
emphysema
. After a bit of research it seems that there are two types. 1. mains powered with an exhaust pipe that goes to the outside of the room. 1.5 Kw / 2.7 Kw. So expensive to run long term. 2.

Partner diagnosed with emphysema
Hi all, My partner has just this month been diagnosed with
emphysema
. He's 64 and I'm 31, we've been together six and a half years, and I suppose I'm just looking for a bit of advice on how to cope with the diagnosis and tips on what I can do to help.
