Yes, texts and letter. You will get letters but they are dealing with the people with lower lung function first. My FEV1 is 30%.

22% and letter/text free so many have not been picked up on their radar,regardless of surgery records?

Sorry I must be wrong. I thought it was done on a 'worst first' basis. x

Wheezy you were not wrong,they have just missed a lot of people in the process,and anybody with an fev1 of 30% of lower should be in the first wave under their guidelines . :)

Hi twodrifters, I spoke with my doctor last Friday. She told me to be guided by how I feel and if I need to take my emergency meds to let the surgery know and they will get me a replacement script straight away. I was feeling rough at the time and sure enough over the weekend i developed an exacerbation. I am so glad I spoke with the doctor i am slowly feeling a little better. Take care, hope this helps.
