    Where to live with Bullous Emphysema
    I was diagnosed with bullous emphysema several years ago. My husband and I currently reside in California, but are interested in relocating to, or close to, Colorado, to be nearer to our grandchildren. According to the pulmonary doctor, it is too risky for me to live in an area with high elevation.
    We have been searching maps of surrounding states of Colorado, but are having difficulties locating areas/cities with low altitude.
    Does anyone have any suggestions or advice they could share?
    We would appreciate any help.
    Thanking you in advance for your time.

    You would need a pretty dry atmosphere. I think Arizona is about the best you can get for your condition.
