Wondering If Others Have Had Noticable Wight Loss With Emphysema
yes i do i weighed 102 back in 06 now i weigh 59 so ive lost a lot of weight and i eat anything that would make anybody gain weight it comes with the disease my father was so tiny my sister could pick him up to put him in his bed after sitting in his recliner he was a six foot man always had good weight till this darn disease got hold and he went down hill so it come with the territory just get use to it theres nothing they can do your metabolism is burning your calories up while you struggle to breath we use calories everytime we breath anyway
yes, indeed, think sometimes its because we tired we don't eat as much, and also we all have days where we use so much energy just trying to breathe. I find for me, that I cope better with having 4 small meals a day, plus a smoothie or something similar, not a milk drinker, but, if add fruit to it , and a few other things, pop it all into the blender it goes down well.
Some people do experience weight loss. If you've just been diagnosed and are just now experiencing weight loss, see your doc. It's probably not the emphysema by itself.
I've lost a lot of weight, I think I use so much energy to breath. I notice after I eat I have to wear oxygen because of energy or oxygen to digest the food.
59 ??? you must be all bones
