Copd, pulmonary fibrosis, mac bacterial infection and honeycomb lung

@tmmmrlts- Oh no, has he taken a turn for the worst? How can I help you?

He has had copd since 2011, and dont know how long he has had pulmonary fibrosis, or the honey comb lung and it's been almost a year since he was diagnosed with mac bacterial infection.
I know my husband and he is not one to just sit around and do nothing. But he has been running fever in the afternoon and throwing up every day. No matter what he eats. He has lost 20 lbs in about a month. He lays down more than he ever has. I brung this up to his dr in dec and he said I will let the infectious disease dr handle it. We have used this doctor for 30+years and I dont understand him anymore.

@merpreb thank you but unless my husband changes his mind there is nothing anyone can do

@@merpreb haven't got hold of him yet he won't be back in office from holiday until monday

I have been trying to get my husband to go to er or urgent care and he hasn't yet. I'm just trying to get through this. But it is hard with him. He is hurting in his chest on his left side and he gets out of breath to easy. He goes outside and he gets sick from the cold I don't know what makes that happen. He also throws up most of the time when he eats. I'm at a loss for what to do.

@tmmmrlts- I've tried to find on your conversations here if you mentioned why he didn't want to do anything different.

@tmmmrlts- When do you next see your infectious disease guy? You know that you can call the ER or urgent care and tell them his symptoms saying that he is getting worse and needs an ambulance...

He is tired of hurting and being sick all the time. He has back and neck problems and a pinched nerve in his back and the neurologist and back dr said he wasn't a good candidate for back surgery this was back in 2011 and now they won't because of his lungs. I think it also has to do with losing our daughter, back in 08 he really hasn't been the same. He is scared to eat sometimes because he throws it up. He has told me the only reason he is living is for his 4 children and 7 grandchildren and not for me.

@merpreb as long as he refuses they cant take him and he would refuse and be angry with me
