Hi Guys, I thought I'd check in as it's been awhile.
My wife had surgery on both feet and was laid up for over 6 months and I took the time to take care of her. As soon as the doctor said that she could go out, we went to Laughlin, Nv for a few days and I was having a hard time breathing while walking up & down stairs, so when we got home I told my VA doctor about the problem he checked me out and said "You might want to get your things in order, you are in the last stages of COPD. Now I am spending 1-2 days a week at the Loma Linda VA Hospital under going tests & treatments. Now after my last test the doctor says that they now want to check to see if the COPD has damaged my heart. I quit smoking over 20 years ago & thought I was safe, but the doctor said that the damage was done before I quit.
So to say the least I have not been able to work on our cars, I get out of breath just walking to the garage.
