Is Morphine In Small Quantities Helpful In COPD/Pulmonary Fibrosis SOP Attacks?
My 2021 MRI showed bronchiectasis. I was a social smoker during my early student years but stopped entirely since 1975, when I was 25 years old and had my first child. After a COVID long haul bout, the Bronchiectasis diagnosis was confirmed by a second MRI in 2023. I am on oxygen therapy since September 2023.

Where Can I Buy Soft Cannulas With The Nose "prongs" Close Together So I Can Turn Them Up Instead Of Down?
I injured my nose - each nostril differently. It's much easier for me to breathe with the prongs facing up in my nostrils. And I have always used WestMed.
