Tai Chi and COPD
Specifically, those with breast cancer, heart failure, osteoarthritis or chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD, which includes
emphysema
) saw improvements in strength, balance and posture without worsening pain or being out of breath, researchers said.

COPD & Short Breath
Hello, I have COPD (
emphysema
) and prescribed 02 for exertion. I am experiencing more shortness of breath lately even though I have 02. Is this normal and does it mean disease is progressing. It is so frustrating and makes me so tired too.

Tension Pneumonthorax
3 weeks ago I went to have a bronchoscopy and they took a sample off my right lung and air brushed my left and my left lung collapsed I have been told it might be because the lung had a lot of
emphysema
so im waiting to have a scan on my lungs.

The pulmonologist said he wouldn't call it
emphysema
and said I just have copd. Didn't stage it. All other doctors I see say it's
emphysema
.

Recovering from pneumonia
Have severe
emphysema
but strangely my breathlessness is not too bad. Probably because I'm doing so little!

Air Purifiers
However I also have COPD (
emphysema
/asthma) and obviously there is a gradual decline in health for this condition. I re-visited the idea of purchasing one and (touch wood) the results are very promising. I will have to keep an eye on things that this improvement continues but it is looking good.

Inhaler the Reason?
As mentioned before I've got Mild / Moderate
emphysema
(Fev1 varies between 67% to 81% in 4 consecutive blows) and got a description for Foxair Inhaler. I must use it once in the morning and once at night time. I rinse my mouth and take a drink of water after I used it.

Legs weakness
I would like to ask if having
emphysema
has any thing to do with legs weakness. I have nearly gone over a few time, but this morning they gave up on me. I went like a bag of spuds. I also get red hot feet and ice cold feet, I had my spine fixed in 2000.
