Hi all , I've just joined this group and popped in to say hello. I'm 59 and am about 50% lung capacity . I exercise every day and hope I'm managing my Emphysema well, but I'm always looking for info on living well .

Hi andyb2206,

Welcome, this is a very informative site with good people who like to share. I'm almost 56 myself and am also at 50% last time I was tested. I don't get to exercise bc I have other serious issues but I think I'm managing pretty good for now. Keep us posted! Ladyjack51

Sounds like you are doing all the right things and hoping that if you smoke, you quit. Otherwise, nothing else you may do will help improve your health.
