[whit]

seeing as I have been advised not fly any more because of the dreaded.c o.p.d

I go on national holidays coaches now and again, at new year i lost a holiday because of hospitalisation( bad exaberation ), now, next week I`m supposed to be having a week away, guess what ,i`ve started the anti biotics and prednisolone again i hope it doesn't get too bad I`d hate to miss another trip

Morning Whit

With COPD I can't fly either so I have UK breaks with a firm called Daish's. They pick me up about a mile down the road (Dudley) and take me a couple of hundred miles or so to Newquay. 5 days, 4 nights half board £159 including the coach in October. As you say, it can be a bit dodgy healthwise so I always take out the insurance. Good luck this year Whit.

I've not heard of this - I know of fit-to-fly test - what is the criteria for flying ? Love your positive responses to things

[whit in reply to Hidden]

i had a pneumo thorax about four years ago, so with lungs only iffy i was advised not to fly because of air pressure on the plane ,apparently the air pressure inside the cabin is set at 8000feet which is no good if your lungs are rubbish ( that's what they told me)
