I''ve got a chest infection first one since January so I should count myself lucky, just lost my moon face so it will be back again. Oh well one of the pitfalls of COPD. Keep smiling

Hi Carole, I would be fed up too. Hope you don't feel too bad and the infection soon clears and it is a long long time before you get another one.

Sorry you have been poorly, carole. I am on antibiotics again. It is weird, I bring up loads and loads of gunge, feel breathless and tired but no more than that. I have been looking after Brian, who is suffering. I think they will review his chemo. next week.

That was a happy little melody - good to cheer us up. love Anniex

Thanks for all good wishes, when I rang my respiratory nurse she said she had few with changed breathing and she thinks it has something to do with the changeable weather. Trouble is I am prone to heart failure so have to keep an eye on my ankles Keep smiling
