Ex-Smoker – MamaFlo

Testimonial – this is a contributed article…

I smoked for 36 years (I just turned 54) and quit finally in Sept 2007 with the help of Chantix. Although the decision to quit was mine it was helped by a cough, difficulty breathing while doing even simple household tasks, and the mere psychological fix of being enslaved.

After being put on a number of inhalers that just weren’t doing the trick, my PCP sent me to a Pulmonologist and after extensive testing and scans I was diagnosed with severe COPD-Emphysema. I am now on oxygen 24/7 and exercising more to build up my strength and staminia. I’m feeling somewhat better but I can’t take away the damage that’s been done to my lungs and although further damage will come on slower because I’ve quit smoking, my health will nonetheless continue to worsen.
