Hi all
Just wanted to say hi and many thanks for letting me join. I am a 52 year old male who was diagnosed wtih emphysema last summer. I have been smoking for 30 plus years. The CT scan showed mild/moderate emphysema , my pulmunary numbers are: Fev1 100 , Fvc 115, fev1/fvc 70 . My Dlco is 89 procent. Are these bad numbers?. Sorry for my bad english. I sometimes find it hard breathing , but then again, Im also a veteran with ptsd.
Many thanks and happy holidays
Thomas
