Well things are starting to happen, I have an appointment for a CT scan on 5th April and an appointment with my Consultant on 20th May, so fingers, eyes, legs and lungs crossed (ah that may be the problem lol). Legs are often crossed due to water tablets doubt if that will change. Will keep you posted. Glass now three-quarters full!

Hello caroll, I have copd stage 4 severe emphazyma, I am 70 years old and have been diagnosed for 13 years but am sure I had it before that. This a post by one of our other members on behalf of a person who has had it done, read it, it tells you all you need to know. I don't think you are severe enough but may good for future reference.

So do I John and I think it will be in Cardiff as apparently that is the nearest one to me that does this procedure.
