A month ago I have diagnosed with emphysema. Doctor gives me some advices about healthy life style. But, I forgot to ask him about physical fitness & emphysema. Can I exercise? Do you know something about that? Should I first see a doctor before I start with fitness?
Hi! I have emphysema, and exercise. This largely arrested the progress of emphysema. I learn to use oxygen much better. Before, you have psychical fitness you should ask your doctor what you can exercise. That depends of your health condition. It is important to seek the advice of your physician before attempting any exercise regime.
