Thank you everyone who responded to my plea for help over this feckin' anxiety...I'll ask the Consultant rather than the Doctor because the Consultant has brought the subject up before...she does seem to recognise the amount of stress we live under when suffering from COPD.
And thank you all for leaving interesting comments about the migrant and refugee crisis...I was heavily involved with the Vietnamese Boat people when many were housed in an old RAF base close to where we lived in Norfolk...the appalling privations they had suffered to reach safety beggared belief...
Now I'll have a think about something cheerful to write about after stirring the Hornet's nest yesterday.
