I'm 59 years old and female. I was diagnosed a couple of months ago with COPD/Asthma and I was beyond scared! My lung function test indicated 49% capacity. After having had flu a year ago, the shortness of breath, coughing, and chest pains continued even after being treated with antibiotics. I've been smoking two packs a day for 36 years. Being born without a sternum caused my ribs to be curled just one inch away from my spine, resulting in underdeveloped lungs. At age 34 I had surgery and it was fixed. Unfortunately, my smoking just caused more damage to my already underdeveloped lungs. The problem I was having is that I enjoy smoking and don't want to give up! Have tried twice before and nearly went crazy and don't want to go through that again. I saw the fear in my husband's and children's eyes when I told them about my condition then they started to find solutions on their own to help my condition. I am 59 now and was diagnosed with COPD/Asthma which I know was from my years of smoking. I started smoking in school when smoking was socially acceptable. I remember when smoking was permitted in hospitals. It was not known then how dangerous cigarettes were for us, and it seemed everybody smoked but I was able to get rid of my COPD and Asthma lung condition through the help of Madiba Herbal Center com my husband bought, WWW. MADIBAHERBALCENTER. COM has the right herbal formula to help you get rid of and repair any lung conditions and cure you totally with their natural organic herbs. I wish anybody who starts smoking at a young age would realize what will eventually happen to their bodies if they continue that vile habit throughout their life.

Suggest the absolute BEST reaction I've had is the daily use of N.A.C ( N- Acetyl Cysteine) combined with Glycine. I mix 1 Gram of each in a little water, 1/2 hour before breakfast, and after a few days breathing will become much easier. I've been using it for 6 months and it also seems to assist with immunity to virus that effect lungs.

Very helpful but bronchodilators only have a limited effect in COPD as inflammation is the main cause, not bronchoconstriction. Therefore B2 agonists aren't relied upon, in fact M2/3 antagonists (tiotropium) are the major pharmacological treatment for bronchodilation

The Path of Eudaimonia ///Hello their. Just to let you know, I’m no M.D. or D.O . or any other type of medical practician. But my mom had emphysema for twenty years before secuming to the disease at age eighty. Her main exercise of her body was mainly to keep going out to different places so as to give the legs the extra stamina in order to keep her mobility as normal as possible. Now this also included the use of oxygen and various bronchodilators everyday as her lungs were diagnosed as severely compromised at age sixty due to forty + years of smoking.But yeah, mobility being the main thing in my observation seems to work for the best excercise benefites. I hope this helps. Doug Fortner, 11.26.19

I would like to know why is it that when I was given the medication Adenosine to do a heart stress test immediately upon being injected w/this medication it cleared my lungs up so much so I thought I was a teenager again. It stopped the wheezing & the struggling to get air in & out. It stopped every bit of it & for the rest of the day I had so much energy I went shopping something I hadn't done in forever.. I felt great until the next morning when it had worn off. THE ANSWER IS RIGHT HERE CAN'T SOMEONE FIGURE OUT AN ALTERNATIVE MEDICINE SO WE CAN HAVE OUR LIFE BACK.

I had 2 adenosine injections the day my SVT wouldn't quit and had to call ems. I do remember feeling better with my breathing but had a killer headache for the next day and a half. My emphysema was really just starting to show itself at that time and has progressed so bad in the last 3/4 years that I'm being forced to apply for disability. I've gone thru 3 spinal fusions and revisions, a heart ablation and now possible cervical cancer. I want my life back! I was even on o2 for awhile and it was pointless. My appt for pulmonologist who may see another issue was just canceled for July and moved to Sept. I cried...I literally told the lady I didn't know if I'd make it that long. I just turned 39 and this all started around 35/36. I have an 8 year old that needs me and I can't be there for her as I should. We all need to start demanding more research or whatever it takes to get our lives back!!!! I too believe it's a better way...

The nurse told me they don't do lung transplantation for people with emphysema because it's seen as a, "it's your fault," disease. The donor lungs are saved for others. Even if you didn't smoke, because then the people who got it from smoking would be mad. I was told that I have paraseptal emphysema. However, it's only in hindsight that I realized that I had very mild symptoms. I never cough. I smoked for a few years in high school, but the doctor assured me that wouldn't be enough to cause it. Maybe genetics. Had I not gotten COVID, and had to go to the hospital with pneumonia, I would've never known. I've had chest x rays as recently as a year ago. It never showed. I had to have a cat scan. I sometimes would get a little short of breath while working out, but not much. Once in awhile, I'd seem to be wheezing while laying down, but not all the time. So, I've never had consistent symptoms. Only now, after having severe COVID pneumonia, and developing substantial ground glass opacities, have I had trouble. I'm doing a lot better. I have my pulmonary function test in 3 days.

Buteyko Method for Emphysema: - Immediate prevention of progression of the disease, improvement in arterial blood oxygenation tests, and reduction in medication (e.g., cortisol, beta-antagonists, etc.). - With the increased CP, gradual reduction in production of mucus, if it was present, ability to walk faster with nasal breathing, and improved ability to walk upstairs. - Use of oxygen 24/7 or lung transplantation becomes unnecessary. - Years of high CP (about 35 s or more) 24/7 result in gradual regeneration of alveoli and complete restoration of the lungs with normal X-ray results. - Significant improvements in the quality of life.

Getting Started by Peter Kolb While the Buteyko method introduced into the west has been getting excellent results, it does not entirely accord with Professor Buteyko’s recommended practice. During two weeks he spent in New Zealand in December 2000, he demonstrated the Buteyko technique as it should be practiced. Aim Firstly, it needs to be understood that breathing too much is a bad habit that leaves you with a debilitating shortage of carbon dioxide and bicarbonate. It usually results from long term, undischarged stress. Any stress makes you breathe more. If this is sustained over a long time period it becomes a habit. The physiology behind this habituation process is well understood. Buteyko therapy aims at reversing this, by habituating to less breathing. You do this by developing and sustaining a feeling of a slight shortage of air over a long time period. This gradually restores your carbon dioxide and bicarbonate levels back to normal. Maximum Pause While it is possible to stifle an asthma attack with a long and uncomfortable breath hold know as a maximum pause (MP), this procedure does not reverse your asthma and does not retrain the respiratory center to pace your breathing correctly. Professor Buteyko is emphatic that the maximum pause has no therapeutic value in restoring healthy breathing, which is the aim of his therapy. It is also dangerous for people with various disorders such as hypertension, heart disease, epilepsy, kidney disease and diabetes. It can also destabilize your breathing, making it worse. Unfortunately the maximum pause has been introduced into a westernized version of the Buteyko technique, much to the annoyance of the Professor. An understanding of the physiology behind the Bueyko method leaves no doubt that the maximum pause cannot improve your breathing. DIY/Self-help Professor Buteyko is firmly opposed to the DIY/self-help approach. The Buteyko technique relies 100% on patient compliance for effectiveness. Learning it from a script is like learning Yoga or martial arts from a book. Most people will experience changes in their bodies as their CO2 levels rise. These changes vary from one individual to another. Buteyko practitioners help you deal with these changes, keep you motivated and ensure that you do the breathing exercises correctly. Support for your Buteyko practitioner enables him to continue his work of bringing the technique to other sufferers. Nevertheless, very few people around the world have access to a Buteyko practitioner. So here are some basics to help get you started. Medication Do not make any changes to medication. Steroids must be taken as prescribed. Because of carbon dioxide shortage asthmatics often don’t make enough Cortisol (natural steroid) and must have supplements. Steroids are not just anti-inflammatories but they are needed by the body and without the right amount it can be almost impossible to get breathing back to normal. Your doctor will be able to review your need for steroids when you stop having asthma symptoms. Bronchodilators must be taken only when needed. As you progress, discuss with your doctor the possibility of weaning yourself off long acting bronchodilators and replacing them with short acting ones. That will give you more control over using them when needed. You should find that within days you will be able to overcome asthma attacks with reduced breathing and won’t need the bronchodilators. Nevertheless, you must always carry them with you for emergencies. Nose breathing Always breathe through your nose. If your nose is blocked perform the following exercise: After breathing normally (do not make any exaggerated breathing manoeuvre), hold your breath for as long as is comfortable, and then gradually resume very gentle breathing. It may help to pinch your nose, nod your head a few times or do some other form of exercise. In stubborn cases or when the blockage is due to a cold, you may have to try a few more times. To avoid breathing through your mouth in your sleep, you might like to experiment with a little light medical paper tape to keep your mouth closed. Mouth taping at night is not recommended by Professor Buteyko, but most people find it extremely valuable. If you do, protect your lips with suitable cream, use a low tack tape (some are quite aggressive), and make sure you fold a tab or handle at each end for rapid and easy removal. Do not go to sleep with tape on your mouth if this causes any form of anxiety. Comfort Make sure you’re comfortable before starting the exercises. Remove unnecessary clothing since the improved blood carbon dioxide will dilate blood vessels in the skin, thereby warming you up. Posture To get your posture right stand with your back to a wall, heels, shoulders head and bottom touching the wall. Now drop your shoulders. Keep this upper body posture when sitting. Relaxation While maintaining your posture, relax all the muscles in your chest, neck, shoulders, arms, tummy and particularly the diaphragm. It’s a good idea to tense them up a bit first before relaxing them so that you can properly identify them and make sure they are all relaxed. Normal Breathing Take off your shirt and stand in front of a full length mirror. Watch your chest and tummy for breathing movement. Make sure that your chest does not move at all, and only the upper part of the tummy moves, between navel and breast bone. The second thing to check for is that the tummy moves out with each in breath and not the other way around. Many people get this wrong. Your out-breath must be free, relaxed and unforced. Reduced breathing (RB) Your aim is to develop a feeling of slight hunger for air, sustain this over a period and do this frequently. In fact, this should become a habit so that you do it all the time until you have achieved your health goal. Try to feel your breathing and become aware of your breathing pattern. Now try to maintain this pattern while taking in just a little less air on each breath so that you develop a slight hunger for air. Initially try to sustain this for two minutes, then five and then ten. If you follow all the steps correctly, then you should feel really calm, good and even a little sleepy. If you already practice relaxation techniques, yoga etc, you can combine them with reduced breathing. Measuring your breathing Hyperventilators breathe more than normal in order to achieve lower than normal blood carbon dioxide levels. It follows that if you have to breathe more than normal, then you will also not be able to hold your breath as long as you should. Professor Buteyko has cunningly used this principle to measure your blood carbon dioxide by testing how long you can hold your breath. You start the pause somewhere in your normal breathing cycle. This is how you start the pause: Look up with your eyes and at the same time pinch your nose and start a stop watch. Just before it starts to get uncomfortable, stop the stop watch and resume normal breathing. You should be able to resume normal breathing without any effort and without taking deeper or more frequent breaths. Some precautions: - Do not take a deeper breath before the pause. - Do not make any attempt to empty the lungs before the pause. - Do not worry about which phase of the respiratory cycle you happen to be in before starting the pause. A pause is just an interruption of normal breathing. The time in seconds is called a Control Pause (CP). Asthmatics typically have a CP of 5 - 15 seconds. (But not everyone with such a low CP has asthma.) Your aim is to achieve a CP greater than 40 seconds, although for perfect health Professor Buteyko recommends a CP of at least 60 seconds. Doing a Set When at rest, correctly seated, comfortable and relaxed and after breathing normally for at least five minutes you are ready to do a set. A set consists of Pulse - CP - Reduced breathing - 3min normal breathing - Pulse - CP First measure your pulse and then do a CP. Record the results on a table. Then do reduced breathing for ten minutes. Breathe normally for three minutes, then take your pulse again and take another CP. If you’ve done your reduced breathing correctly your pulse should go down and your CP should go up. Sometimes the pulse remains the same. If it goes up you’re not doing it correctly. After three days you should be able to do around 8 to 10 sets a day. You can then start integrating reduced breathing into your daily life. Ideally you should aim at doing reduced breathing all day. That takes care of the exercises. Here are a few helpful hints to help your recovery. - Don’t eat unless you are hungry. Only eat until you have had enough. Eating increases breathing; eating excessively increases breathing excessively. - Don’t dress too warmly. Be careful not to overdress children. If you are worried about them being cold, check their ears, nose, hands and feet. If these are warm, they’re OK. - Make sure you get plenty of vigorous exercise. But don’t exercise to the point where you have to open your mouth to breathe. If any of these recommendations make you dizzy, sick, anxious or give you palpitations, stop immediately. If possible see a Buteyko practitioner.

About The Buteyko Method: A Summary of the Pathophysiology of Chronic Hyperventilation by Ira Packman, M.D. The fact that chronic hyperventilation (CHV) has an effect on the lungs is easily understood and explained. The systemic (whole body) effects however, are physically and physiologically distant from the lungs and therefore are more difficult to understand. The multi-system, wide spread systemic ramifications of chronic hyperventilation are numerous. These effects are all caused by the initial effect of pulmonary hypocapnia (low CO2) which causes spasm of the airways leading to asthma. The loss of CO2 from the lung on a long term basis causes a compensatory response throughout the body. This concept is called homeostasis which means that the body is always trying to stay in balance and return to its most comfortable state. A partial list of homeostatic controls would include: - Constant body temperature - Constant whole body water volume - Glucose levels - Mineral balance including sodium, potassium, magnesium, zinc etc. - Acid base balance (Ph control) The acid base/Ph control mechanisms are very sensitive and closely controlled, because the Ph of the body affects the function of every body system. It is this system that is activated when patients chronically hyperventilate. Understanding this concept, we can follow what happens with CHV. - The lungs continuously blow off too much CO2 causing local pulmonary hypocapnia (low CO2) and arterial hypocapnia. - The arterial hypocapnia immediately changes the Ph of the circulating blood causing an increase in the Ph (alkalosis). - The increase in the Ph causes a decrease in the delivery of Oxygen to all the bodies tissues due to the Bohr Effect (In an alkalotic environment, the hemoglobin molecules in the red cells hold onto the oxygen molecules more tightly and will not release the O2 to the tissues). - The kidneys see the alkalosis/Ph change and know that it must correct the bodies Ph back towards neutral (neutral Ph is a Ph of 7.40). Once CHV becomes long standing the kidneys response becomes an ongoing process in which the kidneys excrete bicarbonate in an attempt to correct the alkalosis which was created by the CHV. - The net result is a depletion of the bicarbonate buffers due to continuous over excretion of bicarbonate which also causes the loss of electrolytes including magnesium and phosphorous which are lost with the bicarbonate. - The loss of phosphorous also decreases the production of ATP (adenosine tri-phosphate) and ADP which are the bodies’ main source of energy. - This then causes a decrease in the functioning of many organs including the muscles, heart, lungs, bone marrow, immune system and liver. - These functional changes, coupled with the arterial spasm that occurs directly due to the low CO2 levels in the blood, are expressed in the long term as muscle fatigue, hypertension due to arterial spasm, decrease in the oxygenation of the brain, migraine headaches due to arterial spasm, spasm of the arteries supplying the gut, decrease brain function with memory changes, alterations in the production of proteins and metabolism of lipids in the liver causing elevated cholesterol. This is just a partial list of the systems, organs and bodily functions which are affected by CHV and the subsequent low CO2 levels in the lungs and blood. This concept regarding the origins and causes of these diseases is very radically different from the way medical schools teach about these diseases. It is revolutionary and may be too simple for many academicians to accept or understand.

How I was permanently able to beat COPD, via naturopathic method. "I was suffocating to death!” That’s how I had always felt like and thought back to why I had quit smoking. I had been a chain smoker since 9 years of age. I was addicted to cigarettes for most of my adult life, including the 2 years I had served in the U.S. Army. At 44, I was diagnosed with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD)-a group of diseases, including emphysema and chronic bronchitis, that cause airflow blockage and make it harder and harder to breathe. I had ignored the symptoms until age 52, when I awoke one morning gasping for air. I quit smoking that day. Although, COPD had remained sheer misery in my life. My nose was always stuffed, all my doctors in Queens had reassured me that it was possible to live comfortably like other normal people, with COPD. Nevertheless, I was very much skeptical about this possibility. The symptoms had worsened and I had always felt like I was on the verge of losing my last breath. Of all desires I would have craved for at that moment of " Suffocation" Was to be freed from the condition. I just never relented as I had sought for every possible measure of eradicating COPD permanently without any side effects. It was during my endless research for a permanent remedy on the internet for my condition, I was opportune to come across the professional herbal works of Dr. Harry Obiego - the African man doctor who had completely eradicated my COPD condition naturally. I had seen testimonials attributed to the service of this herbal doctor and his distinguished skills in the world of phytotherapy. I was informed that he was capable of healing COPD attacks via a traditional herbal means and thus, I had been really tempted to give his service a trial. I had nothing to lose, all I had wanted was to be saved from this terrible ordeal, in spite of anything it would cost me. And Providence had thus, led this herbal doctor into my life to give my health life a different interpretation - In brief, after having tried his natural medication I had soon started experiencing positive impact in my health life. It was too good to be true for I knew I was on the brink of my total recovery. After some few weeks of using this natural medication, I had gone for another Spirometry test which had confirmed I had been completely freed from the disease. It has been a thing of abundant joy for me after having being revealed of my current health status. I am so pleased as to share my recovery story with anyone who may be facing similar ordeal to be courageous and find a confidant like Dr. Harry Obiego, of whom had completely revived me from the bondage of COPD. I use this piece of information to pass hope to anyone who would get to read this to be brave and that should bear in mind that COPD is no longer a life sentence, as with this natural herbal medication - COPD can be defeated for good.
