I was just diagnosed with paradeptal emphysema. Based on the CT scan, they looked very clean yet it came up. My oxygen levels are 97 and up, I can do cycling and intend to start swimming soon. I just had total hip replacement surgery and after the surgery, I started having difficulty breathing. My chest x-ray came clean as well as my oxygen levels.
I will see my pulmonologist this week and he will review the CT scan. Does anyone know of any clinical trials going on and specifically stem cells. I will continue to fight this and incorporate physical exercise, breathing, and what ever is available.
Thank you all
