Diagnosed with Thyroid Cysts.
I was diagnosed in 1997 of having COPD -
Emphysema
but I was able to continue working with this condition, in 2009, I contacted N1H1 -Swine Flu and unfortunately this exacerbated my
Emphysema
as a consequence I was unable to continue working.

Water Cure
This confirms what I've been saying about the role of dehydration in
emphysema
and all other diseases. Smoking is a major contributor to dehydration.

Genral Support.
With all the other ongoing complexed health issues, we have been informed that I now have an LV dysfunction and LVH and they now tell us that there are now signs of severe
emphysema
to both upper parts of the lungs of which I am now at "Stage Three" apparently?

o2 stats
Hi, I am fairly newly diagnosed moderate
emphysema
. I have been checking my o2 stats ( probably too often--obsession).

Just out of hospital again
IV steroids got me up to 400 after 3 days still wheezing and Dr says it looks more like a flare up of bronchitis, COPD, or
Emphysema
, so I'm waiting to go back to clinic Friday to see if they can be more specific as to what's the problem

Im back!!! Having more tests after waiting 4 years.
I was diagnosed with
Emphysema
in my right lung and Bronchietasis in my left lung in 2012 and saw a specialist then just left to cope by myself. I've been asking to see the specialist again as my breathing has got worse and my daughter's are worried about me.

My dear Mum has passed away
Hi all, I haven't been on here for a long time, but I wanted to thank all those that gave me advice and help on questions I had regarding both
emphysema
and pulmonary fibrosis. My beautiful mum was diagnosed with both in May 2016 and was on ambulatory oxygen at 3lpm from about July.

oxygen
Dear friends, When I woke this morning I felt so good that for a few minutes I thought maybe my
emphysema
diagnosis was a dream. I was wondering if everyone with the
emphysema
diagnosis eventually has to use supplemental oxygen. Hope everyone has a good day.

Scared
Hi I have just been diagnosed with
emphysema
. I am 59 and and was told I am at 54% lung function. The pages on
emphysema
say I only have 4-5 years of life left. Has anyone proved this wrong. Trying to be strong but I am so frightened.
