Close Anonymous Unfriend Friend Requested Friend Load More Close Destination Page Area Group Destination Content Title Title Article Type Copy comments Hello everyone, new kid here(54) recently diagnosed with COPD at the moderate, close to severe level. I have also seen a cardiologist for this new thumping in my chest, which I was told is my first real complication of COPD, multifocal atrial tachycardia. I am a construction worker of 30 years and my pulmo dr. tells me I will not progress any further in this disease because I quit smoking. First off, there is no such thing as a clean construction job, some just not as dirty as others. Any comments on inhaling things like fiberglass, paint fumes, concrete dust, gypsum, and the list goes on. I would like to live past retirement, if I can even get to that point.
