Hi ericat659Asthma guess what? You have already found the best site for anything you need to know about Asthma, COPD or any other lung condition. You will recieve honest answers to any questions you may have from people who have first hand experience of various lung conditions.

You will also make new friends and recieve any support we are able to give and have a good laugh into the bargain as well from some of the jokers on here. You can't get much better than that, can you?

If you do manage to find somewhere better than our forum (which I doubt), please come back and tell us as I'm sure we will all be interest to know where it is.

If you will stay with us I'm sure you will find our community informative and friendly. You will most probably help others as well by sharing your own knowledge and experiences.

Thanks for dropping by. Hope you stay.

Goodnight. John

Have you joined the Asthma UK Community forum here on health unlocked as well? The two of them have given me s lot of tips over the last 18 months or so and I have gleaned a lot from other people's experiences on both sites.

[ericat659Asthma in reply to freefaller]

yes I have done that, ff. xx

[foxyeric]

This site is by far all you need

[ericat659Asthma]

thanks to all for replying.

I know this site is good, and I will continue to use it. I am just a lot more comfortable with facebook, I use it every day. And I would like to read blogs by other people to read about their experiences coping with the illness and with day to day life.
