Hi all ,although I have had copd for the past fifteen years, and struggled , I told you all I had bought a walker , well , my husband and myself have just come back from a four day break in Cornwall !! and I was able to walk everywhere , what a difference those trusty wheels made , no more wheezing and gasping for air, would recommend it to anybody , it is now a pleasure to go out again ,and you regain your confidence .

Hi Dart 123, I've recently bought one as well. Only been out twice with it so far, but by the second time felt my confidence growing.So glad it's helped you so much. Stay well. We are going to Spain in May so it will come with me. Has anyone any experience of being able to take it on plane with them. It would be a great help to get through the airport. I will phone airline of course but appreciate any knowledge of doing this. Pat x

Check with your airline for airport assistance as it needs to be booked.

I am so glad you took the advice and bought one, I would be housebound were it not for my mobility walker, where I go outdoors it comes with me. So glad your enjoying getting out again.
