Hello....Well.. Am assuming that you have consulted a pulmonologist and then started on the above mentioned medications and oxygen therapy... But that doesn't mean that you need to continue the same lifelong...we need to be very careful with oxygen therapy... Taper down medicines...you need to have regular follow up with pulmonologist... Thank you
