I'm really worried because I've been dealing with COPD for about 10 years, and I get asthma attacks whenever I physically exert myself. I use the Seroflo 250 inhaler all the time, but I'm wondering if there's any stem cell therapy available as a treatment for COPD. Can you provide any insight or advice on that?

I'm feeling really short of breath when I walk, jog, lift weights, or even climb stairs. I'm getting tired quickly, even with little tasks, and it's frustrating because I'm usually pretty active. It's becoming quite concerning. What could be causing this, and how should I address it?

So, I used to have asthma when I was a kid and had to use an inhaler, but once I hit my teenage years, I didn't have any issues, so my doctor took me off the meds. Lately, though, I've been having this wheezing thing happen after I work out. I'm kind of worried and curiousis it normal to hear wheezing after exercise, or is that something I should be concerned about?

no it is not normal, please continue your medication of asthma

I'm having trouble with heavy breathing, especially at night and in the morning. It gets worse when I run or do even small exercises. I feel really tired and like I'm not getting enough oxygen. When I cough, there's some pain in my chest, and I have a bit of nose congestion too. Does this sound serious? What could be causing it?
