Hoarse voice and can't sing.
Hi all, I am so devastated, I have been singing in a choir for the last 5 years, I was diagnosed with
Emphysema
in 2009 but I know I have had it for 21 years and that's when I gave up smoking.

Emphysema and oxygen
My mother has
emphysema
and the nurse recommended oxygen therapy, she said it would help her breathing, but everything I have read says it doesn't, it just gets blood to the organs.

Asthma, pneumonia, emphysema

emphysema
. Still in hospital after a week as oxygen levels still very low, struggles to breath without the oxygen.

Need a breath of fresh air...
I am in the end stage of COPD/
Emphysema

Predisone & nebulizer to Azithromysin
Hi, I got my
emphysema
diagnosis 7 years ago, though I knew it was coming years before that from smoking for 48 years. Last winter I was in terrible shape with an exacerbation that lasted 6 months. I had five stints of prednisone and was put on oxygen.

Hello, I'm new here, this is a very good forum so I thought I would write my story.
But is it asthma or
emphysema
or something else? that is the question, yes I was a smoker so naturally I was told I had
emphysema
. But many years ago when my acid reflux was really bad I think during the night I inhaled it into my lungs and did the damage. I would like to hear your views on this.

Low folate, high cholesterol & b12 definicity etc.
I suffer from
emphysema
etc and waiting to see the specialist but there's a bit of a wait. I'm feeling alot better but still weak. I was put on medication for high cholesterol & low folate late last year, I'm also on supplements.
