I'm really worried about my mom. She's been dealing with bronchitis and has had COPD for about two years now. We saw a pulmonologist who recommended AB FLO and AZEE 500 FARACART, but they haven't really helped much. She's still having a hard time breathing, coughing a lot, and there's a ton of mucus in her chest, making her lungs feel heavy. Can you suggest any other medicines or daily exercises that might help manage her COPD? She still does house chores like washing clothes and cleaning, but maybe there are specific activities or foods she should avoid? Any guidance would be appreciated.
