I'm having some trouble with low breathing when I'm in hilly areas. I got my TMT and echo tests done, and they came back normal. Should I be worried about staying in the hills, or would it be better for me to move back to a more level area?

Can you help me figure out the root cause of my breathing problem and what I can do to solve it?

Question

I've been dealing with COPD for a couple of years now, and I'm really struggling with nonstop coughing, wheezing, shortness of breath, and tightness in my chest. Every 12 hours or so, my nostrils get blocked too. I've been using inhalers like Esiflo 250 and Tiova, but they only seem to provide temporary relief before everything gets worse again. It's gotten to a point where I've had to be admitted to the hospital, and even with constant nebulization there, things have not improved. I'm feeling pretty discouraged and am looking for advice on how to get long-term relief. Any suggestions?
