Hi magsi, welcome to quit support, Majority of us smokers have copd. Firstly giving up smoking is the best medicine you can give yourself. I dont know what medication the doctors have given you but I am sure it will help. try Emjays breathing exercises they do help. just go into hints and tips and you should find them. I am sure Emjay our advisor will contact you soon. well done ! stay positive.

Aup Magsi, its lovely to see ya gal and a big welcome to this site

Like Jillygirl has said, I think the first thing you have to do is quit the smokes gal, hmmmm, easier said than done eh I'm not sure how long you have been quit for, but if you need any help, then just ask !! as simple as that

I dont know whether you have been to the NHS web site for COPD, but its worth a look I hope the link to it works

Take care now Magsi, please keep in touch eh Pete
