UGH! I was afraid that might happen TT
The bright side is that you quit smoking! My mom has COPD and Emphysema. She vaped for about 6 months and MAN could we all tell a difference in her stamina and her breathing! Sadly she went back to the cigs and is back to barely being able to get her breath So you did a very good thing giving up the cigs! there is a bright side to even the worst news 
OH! And the other possibly bright spot in this is that you will start on your inhalers and be able to get your breath so much easier! My mom is SO stubborn that it has taken years to get her to actually use the inhalers I finally started ratting her out to the doc and I think she is using them now

Well, if it will give me some relief with this breathlessness and some energy to do things outside again and exercise, I'll be real, real happy. I've been like the proverbial couch potato for the last year or so. Lots of big plans just no energy to do them. And its tough because my whole life has been mostly out of doors, but now by the time I walk to the porch, I'm winded.
So I'm really looking forward to that "being happy!" And thanks!

Ooohh, I'm not like that at all.
Not a hard headed bone in my body.
Not a one!

Thank you for asking, TT. I have known Salem a long time and she still confuses me with her shorthand. I have to ask nearly daily WTH she is talking about...
I go back to the exam room with my mom at docs. It makes her mad as hell but I do it anyway
Her diabetes is getting out of control and the doc told me to do inventory at her house and confiscate anything that she should not be eating. Needless to say she did not like that at all! We went to the store right after that appt. I saw her at the doughnut case and I said OH! are you buying those for me?

My wife does that to me too.
Every time I say "no" she says "YES."
She's a squealer.

Those inhalers have steroids in them and might give you energy as well as dilating your lungs and helping you to get air
They may make your food taste a little funny too But it will be worth it and I think that there are things that you can do to counteract that part

hey if thats what it takes to keep you honest! Doc can't help if he doesn't know
Well, I try to keep all this on a need to know basis.
The doctor can take a wild guess.
That's what I'm paying them for ... well .... that's what all you people who go to work everyday are paying them for.

Like drink?

I know! I truly was kidding with her. Besides she may be 74 but I think that she could still whip me
She looks at things like the damage is done so why not just do what she wants to and enjoys. there may be a little truth to that but I think that she could at least avoid further damage if she tried
