Medications help in that they work on the symptoms; they do not cure the disease. There are maintenance meds that keep you pretty much where you are and make it a bit easier to breathe, and there are rescue meds that can help if you have an asthma type attack. The best med to be prescribed is O2.

I use Spiriva, Advair and Pro-Air. I think they help.
