Hi AllWent to doc today with persistent chest congestion. As all my obs are good and chest xray ok, doc didnt refer me for lung ct scan. I have been referred to pulmonary rehab. I am doing a lot of breathing exercises and using my inhaler.

I will try this and hope it helps.

As you say on this forum it is about management as well as the right treatment

Yes all about your attitude and management. Pulmonary Rehab is great as teaches you breathing etc. and you will meet others with same condition . Excercise is good .Keep Positive and stay away from negativity xxSheila 💕⚘

Good news. Definitely give pulmonary rehab a go. I really believe if it was not for pr, and then continuing with exercise, (e.g. yoga and pilates) I would not be where I am today. Good luck!

Take a look on NHS Site regarding breathing exercises or search Google for Stuart Sandeman, breathing expert.

Brilliant result. You don’t want too many CT’s anyway because of the radiation levels. I really hope you will be accepted onto a PR course. It makes such a difference to many aspects of our health.

I attend an Active Balance class once a week which helps to maintain fitness levels. You should find one of these classes local to you - Google ? That can help you make a start if your GP says you are well enough to begin now.

Wishing you well.
