    • Close COPD & Emphysema

      I have recently been diagnosed with COPD and I had a Broncoscopy last week. One of the cultures came back as Bronchioectasis - he is treating me with an antibiotic. We are waiting on other cultures to come back, one that he is concerned with is the TB culture.

      Treatments

      Advair Working / Worked
      I have been on Advair for quite some time, and it seems to keep my breathing in check for the most part.
      Xopenex Working / Worked
      I use this when I feel I really need it, which is about once a week. It does help alot, but of course I get real shaky.
