@chisintexas Same issue as you, my age is 76. At the onset of bronchiectasis, around menopause, I dropped 20# that I can't replace and have stayed at 110 on a 5'3 frame. I tried gym training to gain muscle however the lack of estrogen, inability to gain weight and joint problems derailed the plan. Between all the daily chores, like food shopping (for myself and husband), prep, clean up, trying to eat 2000 calories a day, consistent exercise to move mucus, airway clearance techniques, and other bronchiectasis treatments, self-care is a quite a commitment. There is also the common fatigue that impedes the effort...but, it could be worse, and I know it!
