Carotid pulse
Hi, I am newly diagnosed with COPD after a flare in January. Aside from hyperinflation, my biggest issue is how strong my pulse is all over my body but I also get a really strong pulse in both arteries in my neck, so much so I can see it pounding in the mirror. I was wondering if anyone else gets this

After I got diagnosed with COPD in Feb 2016, I ended up losing my job with a global FM company. A clever move by them. So my wife and I sold up and have only recently moved to the sea coast of Lincolnshire.Before leaving Berkshire, I had my 12 monthly COPD review and had to provide the nurse with Spirometry

Montelukast Question
Hi I'd like to hear from several users of Montelukast as to how long they feel it took to get an improvement in their symptoms. Hoping to get several answers so I can compare them and arrive at an average time-frame I should expect to wait on any positive results (assuming I'm lucky enough for this drug

Lung Volume Reduction Surgery (LVRS)
This surgery removes some of your bad lung tissue to allow the rest of your lung to have more room to breath. I am having this surgery and am wondering if anyone else in the group has had it.
