How Can COPD And Severe Fatigue Be Treated?
YYYY@YYYY ... my question is simple. I hope. I have COPD Stage 4 --- Hep C --- and Atrial Fib. My goal is not looking for a cure, rather ... I d like to attack each of these problems to see if I can get rid of 50 to 90% of the terribe fatigue I fight daily like getting out of bed, eating, walking up stairs. I am looking at HEP C next Thursday and willing to do open heart surgery for the Atrial fib if it goes that far.

Hi
Welcome to HealthcareMagic
Just see that best therapy for COPD is oxygen inhalation.
These days the patients are put on oxygen at home with portable cylinders. Stop cigarette smoking. Your majority problem as fatigue will disappear. So consult your local doctor or any chest physician or pulmonologist.
Available near by your home.
Cardiac arrhythmia are also solved up to much extent with the proper management of COPD
Try deep breathing exercises also
