Cindy’s Story (COPD-Emphysema)

cindys-storyMy story started when I had a brain aneurysm almost 25 years ago. My youngest child was just a year old and after my second brain surgery, I realized I needed to start fighting long and hard. I did not know my fight had just started. After many years of going to doctors and fighting like a girl I have recovered after all the doubts in the doctors’ heads.

Then I was diagnosed with Rheumatoid Arthritis…Osteoporosis and Fibromyalgia. Time for the boxing gloves!! Several moons later, I acquired an under-active thyroid, mixed hyperlipidemia, emphysema and COPD. The COPD has been the hardest to battle.

Now being 59 years old and mixing in the Corona Virus, I had to get a pair of bigger boxing gloves. I do believe this is the battle, I will be dreading the most! Note to Self: Keep Fighting Like A Girl…You got this!

    I’m almost 62 and was diagnosed with COPD in 2006 I was extremely short of breath and constantly tired due to my Emphysema, I was introduced to Health Herbs Clinic and their COPD Herbal Protocol. I started on the COPD Treatment last year, my symptoms gradually diminished including my shortness of breath, wheezing and fatigue. Reach them at healthherbsclinic. c om , I no longer carry my portable oxygen cylinder around with me. I am Emphysema free!
