        you should checkout homeopathy (alternative medicine),you can get rid of most meds + quit smoking with their help. This is the medicine hippocrates teached, not the crap industries make nowdays.

              I held my dad's hand while he died of COPD, and he hadn't smoked a cigarette in sixteen years. Of course, he also had asthma and had been smoking since the 1940's.

              Congratulations on finding out now, though, and starting to take the steps to get healthy -- good luck!

                However.....that's only if you don't quit the cigarettes or let it get really bad before you do.

                  Shall I contact A&E about setting up an Intervention for you?

                  Joking aside, I'm sorry to hear that bro.

                    Mostly caused by smoking but can be kept under control if you quit and I know you now will Juicy. Now I realize why you got so short of breath when we played golf in Austin

                    The good news is that you are young and can get better fast by quitting. Cold turkey is tough, so my advice is to get the patches and take them in conjunction with anti-depressiva for a bit and slowly go off it all.

                        Juicy - there is only one thing you have to remember. You quit smoking or you die. This is the harsh reality bro. I was told by my doctor if I don't lose weight I would dies soon! It was enough for me to make a drastic change in life.

                        You must and and I know you can do the same.

                        Please stop smoking NOW, do not wait any longer bro.

                                      This should serve as a wake up call for most of us here.
                                      Remember Juicy, its never too late.

                                          Juicy, haven't spoke to you in a while. First, sorry about the news. Thank god you're still young with the ability to make some changes and heal.

                                          Secondly, another way to quit on the "psychological side" of things is this: quit cold turkey (or the patch) and move. That's it, just move away. See, right now in your daily routine, smoking has been associated with everything....ie, lighting up during a simple drive to the store, etc. The point is to drop all the "familiar settings" and get the heck out. People under estimate the power of new surroundings. When you get into a new town/place, just keep in mind that this is your 'new life' where you make some changes....there is no association with smoking anywhere. Just keep it that way. And in this new place, you'll create new daily routines..hopefully without smoking.

                                          I know that sounds weird and 'out there', but this is your life we're talking about it.
                                          And any change can only help you.

                                              Juicy Keep puffin on the Advar, it really helps.
                                              when I found out I had COPD, I could not walk up the 3 flights of stairs to my apt without a breather half way up
                                              Now after a couple of months on the advar, not only can I walk up the stairs I can run up them and not feel winded much.
                                              Now all I have to do is stop smoking, the 5 smokes a day I have
                                              and I should be able to live a decent quality of life.

                                              good luck with it all Juicy

                                                  Sorry Juciy, Party hard and this is what happens. Mine lead to heart problems.. Gotta stop all the fun stuff besides too much drinking and smoking.

                                                  I've seen Emphysema up close, you don't want to know the details. This is a life style changing event, take your doctors advice!!!! Things can get worse and life is much better doing the right stuff.

                                                  Wish you well and a long life.

                                                        There's alot of things that need to change in my lifestyle .. But damn after awhile it just becomes part of you!

                                                        If anyone has any good suggestions on how to quite smokin, change eating habits and get on a good physical program .. please let us know .. us ol farts can't seem to get out of the rut

Just quit smoking and start jogging an hour a day. start building up your lungs... Me and steve(abysswargames) are planning on quiting asap.

We'd actually given up on him at this point so he was high as a kite on morphine (morphine suppresses your urge to breathe so we only used it as a last resort so he could enjoy his last days).

                                                                            He did die four years later -- it was very hard to watch, but even harder were the years he was on oxygen and struggling. It's not like you suddenly just DIE of this, you SUFFER FOR YEARS. It sucks. Good luck again with quitting.
