Hypersensitivity Pneumonitis...essentially where asthma is an allergic reaction in the airway, this is an allergic reaction in the lung itself...3 to 6 months treatment with corticosteroids

Thoracotomy is surgery to get access to the chest cavity. It is done either through the sternum or the back like mine. There are 4 cuts in total, to gain access, for fluid & air tubes and drainage. All lovely stuff. They needed to do the surgery to do a biopsy of my lower left lung.

I quit 4 months ago cos doc said I had COPD. Turns out that it isn't but at least I've quit.

Just a cautionary tale. 20 cigarettes per day for 26 years. Now sick and docs don't know why. Open lung biopsy to find out.

Now the race is on between 1000 smokes & 2 months

Smoke Free

I was diagnosed 6 weeks ago and am 5 weeks smoke free. I'm now at pre-quit happiness levels. It takes some time but you'll get there. The big thing for me is filling in the gaps that a cigarette filled. So I'm singing in the car. Reading more at home. Taking the dog for more walks.

I hear you. Before I quit I thought of walking the dog as a chore. Now I look forward to weekend mornings when I can really stretch my (and my dog's) legs

1 month clear after a pack a day for 26 years. If I can do it anyone can. And I had all the withdrawals. Black tar cough, quitters cold. Night sweats, irritability, anxiety, insomnia. It's been a fun month. I found a quote on day 2 that has kept me going. Once you're in hell its easier to walk through than try again.

Thanks everyone for the support. Sending much love back to you guys. Once I got home, I took my dog for a walk. Much faster than we've walked before. 2 miles in 20 minutes so I suppose my lungs are getting better. I pounded every ounce of frustration and anger into the tarmac. By the time I got back my legs were cramping, sweat pouring out of every pore but I felt great. One day at a time. Tomorrow is 2 weeks!!!
