Diagnosed With Emphasema, Having Chronic Cough, Feel Short Of Breath. Solution ?

I have been diagnosed with emphasema for several years. About two months ago I noticed that several times a day my lungs suck in air something like if I were on a ventilator with the air being forced in. About a week ago I started having a chronic cough and cant get my breath. I have no energy and am out of breath just going to another room.
