Back in February I was diagnosed with lung disease but was unsure of how bad it was.
So I had my lung appointment at the lung specialist today and the diagnosis is COPD.
Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease
A group of lung diseases that block airflow and make it difficult to breathe.
Emphysema and chronic bronchitis are the most common conditions that make up COPD. Damage to the lungs from COPD can't be reversed.
I'm going back to my GP tomorrow and it will be managed with a puffer type medication. Not the stuff you use for asthma but something stronger and to help me breathe all day everyday.
Hopefully this will help me not be so tired all the time.
At least now this health issue can be managed and I can breathe a little easier (pun intended) and deal with all my other health issues.
