She doesn’t smoke very often and had actually quit for quite a while but she recently started again and it really hurts me when she does because my father has emphysema and has a spot on his lungs from smoking and I’ve had to watch him suffer for quite a while, but they’re addicting and I know it’s very difficult to stop. I was just wondering if there is a sure fire way to stop once and for all.

1) Is it best to be in the desert? The mountains?

2) Is dry air or humid air better?

3) What cities or regions of North America would be most beneficial? What areas would be especially bad?

4) What compenents of smog are especially bad for people with COPD or emphysema?

5) What role does altitude play?

Will COPD turn into emphysema?

I have hypothyroidism and have recently been diagnosed with COPD/Emphysema. I was wondering if anyone would know about both conditions together. I do know the hypo thyroids already slow the body to some extent but, I am curious about if a person has both. Anything you can share would be appreciated.

My mother has been a heavy smoker for over 30 years and has emphysema and stopped smoking 3 years ago. A couple days ago she got very ill and lethargic and was turning blue so we rushed her to the hospital and it turns out she has advanced COPD and they have her on a ventilator to breathe. My question is how long can someone live after being diagnosed with COPD? She is 58 years old and i’m so afraid she won’t come home from the hospital.
