COPD and Emphysema: Confused by pulmonary function test and more

@jgpolachek- Welcome to Mayo Connect. I am a volunteer mentor with Mayo Connect. I'm a lung cancer survivor with COPD and Emphysema. One of my doctors told me about certain doctors and pharmacies playing with trials. It's disheartening at best. And I agree, how does that give hope to anyone?
May I ask what brings you to Connect and how can we help?

About 12 years ago a friend was in trial at Cleveland Clinic for atherosclerosis a shot for six weeks of ApoA-1 Milano. Great results, Pfizer came in, pulled trial, paid 1.25 billion for all rights. This made possible all the money drug companies made on statin drugs. I was having flares every six months until I found good pulmonary, he put me on Zithromax three times a week m-w-f and started me on lung flute twice a day. My flares are now about every 2-3 years.
