Bravo for consulting Mayo Clinic. Bravo to you for quitting smoking! Sounds like you doing everything you can with a positive attitude. Doctors all say Attitude is 50% of the battle. In the man time look up "Stress Free Living" by Dr Amit Sood...it helped me breathe better!
I have seen 2 pulmonologist & have had several procedures to see what is going on. I had an open lung biopsy a month ago. They sent it to Mayo clinic for a second evaluation. I used to smoke & quit about 3 minths ago. I am told my only option is lung transplant and my window of opportunity is very small. I am going to look into oxygen this week as it's hard to breathe even at night when sleeping. I keep losing weight and the fatigue is hard. I am pushing forward and trying to keep life as normal as i can.
