I visited the pulmonologist for a consultation.
A little surprised at the lack of masking.
Says seems more like asthma and my lungs sounded good.
I don't think he had my medical records but I am not sure and am scheduled for pulmonary testing next month.
Oxygen concentration always about 98%
Cat scan 2020 showed hyper inflated lungs.
Cat scan 2024 showed hyper inflated lungs and scarring.
Spirometer with never taking meds was 44% predicted.
Spirometer one month Breo Ellipta was 78% predicted with a LOT of side effects such as increased heart rate for no reason and feelings of inability to get air.
Switched to Trelegy and Spirometer 74%, no notice of heart rate issues, oxygen concentration up to 99%. But blood pressure was 132/74. The highest blood pressure I ever had in my life was 111/80. Slight weight increase.
By happenstance I used an incruse ellipta and had very good experience before getting the Breo ellipta. Insurance issues delayed filling it so I opened the Incruse not realizing it was a different product.
