My father is recently diagnosed
Hi my Dad has recently been diagnosed with severe
emphysema
. There is so much information on the internet that I can't see the wood for the trees. I would be very grateful if anyone could explain to me what we should expect, and also what help he is entitled to and should push for.

Sadly a lot of people do die, then somebody comes along like myself, one that has defied and hopefully beaten Cancer and is now getting the best possible mileage out of doing the same thing to

Diagnosed with COPD
The Dr however told me I'm in the beginning stage of COPD and that the newest findings are that if you remove the smoking or whatever caused the
emphysema
the lungs will age more or less the same as anybody else's but the damage already done obviously cannot be repaired.

Emphysema
I have been reading many articles that food grade Hydrogen Peroxide can heal Copd, especially when it is broken down with distiller water and flushed into your system with a syringe.

Things go from bad to worse
So I got over all that news only to be told a few months after I have heart failure, LVD to be precise...Left ventricular dysfunction....haha no wonder I feel so tired all the time and here was me blaming the fibro, the
emphysema
and the atheroscloris, when the extra culprit is actually heart failure

Emphysema
Having read the previous post and the replies on
Emphysema
a lot of emphasis seems to be on eating well. I would be grateful of some advice and tips on a daily diet as I have tried lots of different things but still get stomach problems.

Must Fight Naps
I have COPD
Emphysema
. I take Spiriva, Symbicort, Mucinex & I nebulize with albuterol inhalation solution on a daily basis just to get out of bed & move around. As the disease progresses I get tired. Not just tired but down right sleepy.

Thought pneumonia with emphysema could kill you ?
In the hosp this wk with pnuemonia at my base...its not the death sentence i thought is it ? Infection of the lung can or no ?

Blindsided and Left Hanging…Now What?
You have a nodule in your lung and
emphysema
. That's it…she said she would call back later to tell us more. So now we both worried for the rest of the day and not understanding any of it. How can this happen so fast without even realizing it?
