There is a new treatment. FDA approved, ZEPHYR VALVES... GOOGLE IT. The procedure places one way, exhale, in damaged lung making it resembling lung volume reduction surgery without surgical intervention. It will require about 5 days in the hospital.

Had Zephyr valves inserted & it made a world of difference! Also keep in mind that the FDA has put Dupixent on the priority for approval for COPD! That is one incredible drug!

I read that yesterday it's FDA approved I wonder does most insurance cover that and there is a risk they say collapsed lung do you know of anyone who had it done.
