Ask them to come to you if on oxygen make sure you tell them that. Make sure you tell them all medication. If not let them know what you take and what for. And say how far you can walk I can do underc20 meters. I am stage 4 copd and suffer with anxiety and panic attacks after a bad exacerbation attack my confidence just went takes time for me to go out and wouldn't go out without my hubby. Make sure tell them about your bad days dont about you but this weather affectsxmy breathing so dont go out. take care and let us know how it goes.x
