My frequent exacerbations
In Florida it got so cold I got pneumonia , I never recovered and coughed till I couldn't cough anymore. I went to the doctor and went for a breathing test in a big machine, I had 3rd stage COPD/emphysema right off!
Now 8 yrs later , I'm getting severe exacerbations. My chest just tightens up and hurts and I stop breathing; my husband gets me to my oxygen and he puts my oximeter on my finger. I can't speak, I can't see and I am so weak. I've had 5 of these thru the winter. I'm going to the doctor soon and I want to get a portable oxygen, but I probably have to do the big machine again. I hope I'm not in stage 4. That is my biggest fear. I trust In Jesus with my Life. He has given me a New Life to live.
I am blessed by My Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ 🕊
Hi
. I am glad you have your faith to lean on. That must be a big help right now. Have you talked with your doctor about the episodes? If so, what has your doctor said? I would think you would qualify for portable oxygen or at least a portale concentrator since you have no idea when these episodes will hit. Thinking of you. - Lori (Team Member) I got a appointment April 11th and we will talk then ! I'm gonna get a RX for A portable Oxygen, Just maybe Medicare would pay some ! Thank you Lori , for always thinking of me !
May The Lord God Bless You !
