Feeling positive

Hello everyone, after joining this community on Saturday i have read so many of your informative posts.

I have been poorly since April. Suspected Copd, 3 trips to hospital.

Feeling well at the moment.

I felt like everyone knows exactly what’s wrong with them, after seeing my wonderful stop-smoking nurse (7wks not smoking 😀) she has finally put a plan together...spirometry booked & follow up appt 2wks later with long term illness nurse for a full review...hellelujah light at the end of this long tunnel.

Stay well everyone x

Hi Vee70 and welcome to the site. If like the rest of us this site has proved to be invaluable to you for gaining information and making good friends and having a laugh, then you have found the right place to be. It sounds like your nurse has things under control and well done on stopping smoking. Unless you have good support it can be like a minefield getting to the bottom of whats wrong, but there is plenty of information in here to help you out. Irene x

Hi Vee70 and congrats on locating this site. I have found it incredibly informative with many lovely, friendly people who are able to offer advice, humour, moral (I would prefer to add an 'e') support, empathy and make you laugh which as a medicine is hard to beat! Long may you enjoy it!

I am sure it will, it should also help to assuage that feeling of being left alone to wrestle with a problem about which you know very little - and you will hopefully enjoy the poetic odes which so many are becoming more adept at :-)
