chronic respiratory problems

Several times in the past ten years I continue to have upper and lower respiratory problems--sinusitis, bronchitis, and I have been diagnosed with pnuemonia 3 times.  I have been so sick since Saturday 11/17 with muscle aches, fever, tiredness, dry cough turning into productive bloody sputum by last night, that I am so concerned.  I am 52 years old, diagnosed with a VSD at birth (non-surgerically corrected) and know that pnuemonia is serious.  In the past 3 years it appears that I may even be asthmatic.  Using inhalers does help.  My family physician just treats the symptoms until the next time.  Is there anything I can do to improve my health--going to a specialist and how do I go about that?  I live in central North Carolina and work at a large high school which doesn't help the situation.  Thanks!

Cut back on sugar and white bread , it just makes you more acidic and infections thrive in that enviroment.

No . But my COPD has led me to research . I have talked to many ayurvedic doctors. The Breathe EC formula used to control my bronchitis like a miracle but then I developed gastritis by heavy pain killer use and can no longer take it. Even the mild pepper causes me discomfort.

Medical doctors can't help much in COPD diseases.
Seeing an allergist specialist may help.At least you will know what things you are allergic to and avoid.

Transfer factor advanced plus is backed up by research.Increase T killer cell acitivity by 400%.

I would also recommend seeing a nutritionist and complete some kind of detox program like COLONIX...
