Note - assuming you have been diagnosed with COPD (other lung conditions have been ruled out):

'What it means: FEV1 of <30 percent indicates very severe '.

< = less than.

Thank you for that I was still smoking when that diagnoses was made stopped smoking since then attending pulmonary rehab and daily exercise just wondering if that will improve those numbers duff

[soulsaver in reply to Duff1953]

Exercise will improve the take up of what oxygen you have available to you, irrespective of the Fev1 measure... but which often improves too.

When I ask my GP/Hospital you would think youre asking for their pin number! I just wait untill It is logged in the notes and look them up online. I always get my consultant letter cc'd to me. But it is so hard to get anything out of my GP practice nurses?
