@bluelagoon- Hi! We've missed hearing from you. I agree that COPD is a formidable foe. Just keep doing what you are doing to stay healthy. I recently spoke with my oncologist and she said that not-smoking is the biggest no-no for COPD and unless there is a big change that needs a follow-up that we should concentrate on how to remain as healthy as we can and not worry about it. I know, easier said than done. I'm with you on the cancer and COPD, We can only do our best. Are you doing any inhalers?

@merpreb Thanks, Merry! No inhalers at this point. And, I knew from my PA at Mayo that from the lung cancer perspective that not returning to smoking was the biggie and for exercise to focus on the cardio stuff, for the lungs. So, that makes sense that COPD would run the same tracks. Guess we can't change the past so need to "stay on the straight and narrow" going forward, huh? Lol.
