A member asked:
What does it mean if my husband has c.o.p.d, emphysema advanced?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Bad: It means he has serious lung disease. Keep him close to your doctor and follow all the advice you get faithfully. There's no cure but it's a treatable condition. Of course, keep him away from all forms of smoke.
