Hello I am 24 years old soon to be 25 and yesterday i did a CT since i had this brown stuff coming with my cought every morning for last 2-3 months,so i ended up doing a CT and it turned out i have panlobular empysema they said its mild and it wont affect my life at any aspect i used to be a heavy smoker for 3 years or so and i immediately quit,i also used to box and stuff before that meaning i had really insane cardio and for some reason i still do once i quit smoking i hardly get tired,so is it true if i never touch a cigarette again it wont affect my everyday life in the near future
