Have never seen leaflets in any form at surgery/hospital,indeed no mention from any professionals at chest clinic /pulm. Rehab/specialist nurses.
Have learned a lot from contributions from web users and comforting to know that BLF is only a phone call away

Respiratory team gave me my leaflets along with a load of other info ref IPF
I came across the website after being on line looking for a specialist in the field of the disease I have. The information I have found has been invaluable. Excellent service provider.
I got the information from the people from Healthunlocked,
Googled COPD and this website came up. Very informative and caring people
MyRespiratory nurse told me about this site ages ago and said I may gain some help from people who are able to understand our conditions etc. It's been such interesting reading at times and the BLF staff are TERRIFIC.
The information on the website is very valuable.
i can not remember exactly but i think it was when BLF was just starting out and i heard about it on the media,i know it was a long time ago, i did not have a computer in them days.

BLF has been my salvation after pneumonia - the only after care resource I could locate in desperation, and after a painful, frustrating delay.
As a result, I plan to ask my surgery to display BLF leaflets, if such are available. Can't believe there isn't more widely available info. (Would gladly distribute it myself wherever I can. )
There must be many others out there crying out for advice after a traumatic experience, and encouragement with home rehab and exercises which, needless to say, is equally important.
I owe BLF for my recovery!
Even though our surgery had a stand for the breathe easy week last year there are no leaflets in our surgery and not even a poster on the notice board. Next time I visit am going to out one there.
