after 50 yrs of smoking i gave up. every thing was fine till i started getting out of breath. after an x-ray i was told i had emysemia, i was given 2 inhalers to use, salomol inhaler and qvar autohaler. i have found that after a year of using these i have found no difference what so ever. i have started riding a bike every where with in a 5 mile radius of my home. is there any thing i can do to help my breathlessness?.
