Also booked in the lung function test again for mid January requesting an interpreter. Will practice the breathing now with Dad before the test. Thanks again everyone and fingers crossed.

Thanks everyone, dad has had the CT scan last year and this year. The pulmonologist wasn’t able to access last years one but for the current one it showed scarring on in a honeycomb pattern on both the bottom lungs in addition to holes from smoking.

I think the pulmonologist wanted to lung function test and blood tests first before deciding whether any prescriptions were necessary.

Dad used to bike and go for walks a lot but has stopped in the past year. He seems to have to visibly lost weight as well. I’ll encourage him to try and go for walks again despite being out of breath.

I’m going to order the AirPhysio to help him practice his breathing. I’ll also go see the GP if there is any rehab program available for him (it’s just hard because he doesn’t understand English and I can’t translate sufficiently…so I’m not sure if there is any rehab program for him in Cantonese or Vietnamese).
