Hello Justice,
My MIL had COPD so i do know a little bit about it..... She had a lung doctor and a seperate heart doctor.
They say hers was caused by environmental toxins. Everytime she went into the hospital her test results came back positive for TB, but it was proven time and time again she did not have TB. I'm sorry you are having to deal with this as it is a very difficult disease to cope with. If you'd like to talk, send me a PM, and we can exchange emails or something..... {{{HUGS}}}
