The hospital appontment that was made on Friday for me to see the lung specialist on Monday morning, is not got any doctors name on it, it's just made out to government hospital, and you have to see any doctor again whe your number is called, that could take hours. They will assess you again before you can see the specialist. Inl told them that I needed emergence

treatment from the lung specialist in a private hospital yesterday morning and it seems to have worked well really and I in no longer pain but I am still very breathlessness. They told me to keep up on the advice for the next to weeks and made me another appointment with their lung specialist in two weeks time.

I did have yet another xray and a nebulizer while I was there for the 5 hours.

See how I feel in two weeks time about another stressful day in two weeks time and whether I really need needed a full lung function test or just have in my local private hospital that you just blow into a box for a Β£100.

I will see how I am in two weeks time.

I really okay now to go and exercise in our the sea,but I read now it's now been full of moon jellyfish for the past 4 days πŸ€¦β€β™‚οΈ

Again thanks for all the replies you've all been giving me, they have all really been appreciated πŸ™

Thank you Germamtara, Wednesday morning now and am feeling so much better. It was my first time to experience an copd exacerbation so I really was very frightened.
