“Occult” emphysema

Posted by mrgower @mrgower, Oct 21 11:47am

Was told after CT scan and PFT was diagnosed with “occult” emphysema. Currently on Brenya . Any others with this issue?

Interested in more discussions like this? Go to the Lung Health Support Group.

I have “marked” emphysema which means full blown. Definitely due to smoking. If you smoke, please quit. You do not want to be in my position. Also have your Dr check for the gene AATD to see if it’s genetic also. Good luck and wishing you the best.
