Hope you feel better soon Freddy, you should let the doctor know about your swelled up feet, might be the meds or could be something else, take it easy for now, have a good weekend , huff xxx

Hi freddy, I think we're all a bit far flung to meet up for coffee unfortunately.

You may be lucky to find someone on the forum who lives near you.

We're from all over the world really! We have members from USA, Australia, New Zealand, Thailand, Cyprus, Spain to name a few.

You should maybe book an appointment with your GP if you find your feet are swollen. You could be given meds to help

Take care & come back for a chat anytime 💐

thanks..... am very new to all this.....internet is a marvel......feet have gone down a bit thanks....feel better today....but still on meds for the next few days.........

Hope your feeling better soon freddy! You could try to see who lives near you or have you tried to find a breatheasy group near you? I went to my first one other week and they are marvellous meeting people in same boat as me all different ages and stages interesting discussions they organise days out weekends away evenings out, I have only been to one they meet once a month you could see if there is one nearby and give it a try honestly I was amazed that so many people who lived near me suffer same illnesses. It was a lovely day laughed a lot and I felt so pleased I had plucked up courage x

[freddy123456 in reply to Ennyl]

thanks.... will look into that.....all the best

[Ennyl in reply to freddy123456]

Oh good and if there is one near you and you do go please let me know how you get on take care x

Hi (again) Freddy.

emphysema - thought id try and impress you but the reality is that Google was brilliant at working it out once I typed "emp" ☺

Ah, "Skem" nice place, not been for a while but did visit Deeside & Spoke recently (still a hundred miles away so I think my coffee might get cold before I arrive.

Swollen legs - are we the same person or what??? Saw he doc and he said its related (after ruling out other stuff) and prescribed "flight socks" which I use as and when needed. Check first though just to rule out the few nastiest that can lurk around the corner. Oh, finally, putting on flight socks whilst having COPD is a real bundle of laughs - when living takes every ounce of breath you appreciate how tight flight socks are!!!

Get well soon and keep mastering that 'puter.

heheee Freddy...think spelling is least of all our worries....most people understand the word u mean even if not spelt correctly.You won't find many nasty picky people on here...all are pretty understanding and here to help,not concerned with spelling.

[freddy123456 in reply to piping]

that makes me feel better......thanks
