My Husband Got Diagnosed With Emphysema Today. His Mother Died

My husband got diagnosed with emphysema today. His mother died of COPD at 75, he is 65 now. Should he be tested for Alpha-1 def.? He is a light pot smoker and if he continues that habit, what could be his life expectancy?
OMG, can't believe you charge ppl. No shame in your game, right? Webmd has the funds, they should put a dozen Dr. online or at least nurse practitioners.
