Are There Meds That Treat Both Mild Pulmonary Hypertension AND COPD (that Is, Relaxing Pulmonary Artery And Airways)?
Receiving no treatment for PAH but yes for COPD (oxygen 24/7, inhalers) and nothing for moderate radiation scarring and fibrosis.
Hi. Recent COVID test negative. Still working on breathing with docs. thanks Dick
Good luck with it Dick, bear in mind that a Covid infection can cause reactions /symptoms in the longer term (even weeks later), despite only having a mild infection/ bit of the sniffles or cough in the first place. I speak from personal experience which seems pretty valid to me 🙂
Also if you have picked up a Covid infection in the last few weeks it could cause rapid deterioration in your oxygen uptake and worsen your symptoms quite quickly! 🙏 Let us know how you go 🙂
Hi Dick, butting in here but.... identifying other factors that are playing into your personal O2 profile is one of the things you can do to help yourself. Even if there are some elements you can't treat there may be some that you can.
Wouldn't want to offer false hope but I reckon it's an avenue worth exploring and finding out more 🤗
Thanks Kris. I’m setting up appt with another pulmonologist to get a different view of what’s going on . Current doctor says my breathing problem is out of control proportion but it just could be the mix of lots of mild issues. We will see. Dick
