Hi Jane, nice to meet you. I have COPD and am on oxygen 16 hours plus ambulatory. I'm retired I agree PR is the best thing for us. It's also important to carry on with exercise .
I'm also on oxygen, 16 hours per day and a BiPAP machine at night (with oxygen) as I'm a CO2 retainer too. If anyone's been offered the chance to use of these machines then I would recommend them to do so, as I've felt so much better since I started on it.
Glad to hear you gained benefit from Pulmonary Rehab too. I thoroughly enjoyed my time on that course.
Take care now
Hi there Jane, welcome to our community. You will find lots of friends who will offer help and support here, good to hear you enjoyed your pulmonary rehab programme.
Great you are keeping the exercise going.
Keep up the good work Jane.
