As I'm sure my consultant knows the criteria for this treatment I know I wouldn't be suitable for lung reduction or valves as my
Emphysema
is severe and throughout my lungs. Anyway others out there might be more successful so it's worth contacting them W.McNulty@rbht.nhs.uk Good luck Kim xxxx

Chest X-Ray results.
The wording as follows: COPD and known bullous
emphysema
XR Chest: The heart is not enlarged. The lungs are hyper-inflated with extensive bullous
emphysema
change particularly on the right lung, but no focal consolidation (no lung infection) and little change from 2011.

To All copd patients please get checked for alpha one antitrypsin deficency, we are rarely diagnosed and most misdiagnosed as copd patients!
A1AD is not a rare disease but is rarely diagnosed and many patients with
emphysema
, liver problems and copd (umbrella) if presenting problems in their 4th decade or have presented them in the last 30 yrs when you could not test for alpha one need to be re tested and re called for alpha one test up

Gives me and others hope.
One should keep in mind that smoking is the main cause for Bullous
emphysema
. An individual who smokes will be instructed to quit immediately after they are diagnosed with Bullous
emphysema
. The best treatment plan might not help at all if a person still smokes.
