As prep is very important I wash my hands plenty so I don't get a infection I have to be careful I love to cook and find myself now getting up 6 am to slow cook chickhen or ox tail in slow cooker Sundays are great and Iam getting quite good at Sunday roast I try not to eat to much as easy to put weight on what with my meds so I just try to eat really well and not snack just 3 to 4 Quility meals. I think if I had not really tried post TX to eat well No processed. Low salt low surgar plenty. Fibre. That I would not be here We are what we eat. Diet is every think. It can improve how illnesses and quility of life. I sometimes would go 2 plus yrs or so with out a flare up. Crap on chest some people with COPD are constantly infected. Smoking is. A death sentence if yr got chest illness I was told buy my 1 st Dr Really old. At. Barts when 1st diagnosed. That my only hope was to stop or early death he proved right because my Sister also had my condition. A1AD. She could not quit and died with in 5 yrs aged 52. I. KNow it's up to the individual. But it really does me in when I see people smoking more so if they have COPD I heard. The. NHS. As made a break though with. CF a new. Drug that improve s. Lung function this is. Fantastic. On that. Note of going on. Please try to look after yr self. Flu jab. Fruits. Veg. Fresh fresh. Fresh. Right. Over and out.
