I just found this site and feel as if will meet many of my needs. I was diagnosed with copd 4 years ago, although I am sure that I have had it much longer. I am on 3L of 02 24/7, have developed complications from a maintenance dose of metrol, but refuse to give in to this condition and stop activities. I intend to learn all I can about copd, try to keep people from starting to smoke and getting those who do smoke to quit. I had to give up certain activities, but am starting to walk for an hour daily, and am active on line with various support groups. I am definitely a people person and am very happy to be a member of this site.  |

Hey Judy... Welcome abord....
Sorry to read you are on O2 24/7 and starting to develop even more health complications. Hopefully, we can share ideas to help you have more fun or better health or if needed, a place to vent. After all, each of us are here to help one another - through good times and bad.
Chat later...
