Are there any Alpha 1's or COPD sufferers out there in the Bournemouth area as old as me.....I'm 36 and was diagnosed at 30?

Why not ask the nurse at your doctors about groups that deal with C O P D as i am a sufferer but live a long way from you [Manchester].

Take care and i pray you find a group that suits you goodluck.

Thx Willy,

I've been here only a short time and am looking to start a Pulmonary Rehab course on the 11th Sept. matbe that will bring new people in but in truth i've only seen people as young as me in London.... At Harefield Hospital. I think most part of the Sufferers in Bournemouth are a lot older than me. I'll hang in there till someone comes along......)

Hi Heavo, I go to PR and also to my local Breathe Easy, but must admit most of the people are much above 36 years, including me unfortunately. (Oh how I wish I was 36 again)

Good luck.
