    • Close COPD & Emphysema

      I was a long time smoker who stopped the first time for 15 years and started again for about 4 years before stopping again. I have been smoke free for about five years. I was diagnosed with moderate Emphysema in May of 2007 and after a CAT Scan in December 2007, the diagnosis was changed to Severe Emphysema. I don't feel too much different. I am retired, mostly because of this and heart problems. I try to walk every day.
