@beachlover5008 Idk exactly what that is, but my grandma had emphysema and died of lung cancer. So did my uncle and my grandma's sister. Everyone in my family smokes .. including myself. My grandma's sister smoked while she was on the oxygen tank w/lung cancer until she died! How did this happen to u? What is COPD?

I had chronic bronchitis when I was young. Never been on oxygen outside of a hospital but I did used to use a nebulizer for asthma meds often. My asthma improved as I got older luckily and I no longer have bronchitis but I do still get asthma attacks on occasion.
