Walking staying active take your meds that's good keep praying cause most people that have stage 4 is on oxygen just continue to eat right and walking helps
Thank you so much
I am active I walk a lot I’m eating healthy and making smoothies everyday with fruit and veggies
I also and molting my weight
Since I was diagnosed in April I have lost 8 lbs and working to lose 7 more lbs
If I hadn’t gotten Covid I probably wouldn’t have known I had it
I quit smoking a long while ago
Covid woke up the COPD symptoms
I praying every day that I can stay away from Oxygen
Thank you for your feedback
aside from staying as active as possible, make sure you take your meds, use your inhalers, etc like clockwork. maybe also be open to the idea of palliative care (which is not the same thing as hospice care) and be willing to take suggestions from your doctor about new or experimental meds/treatments
When the humidity is high , I don’t go outside at all . Keep cool under the a/c . Try resting more . Keep your a/c filters changed once a month like clockwork. Beware of cleaning chemicals or air fresheners. Also candles .
Checking in with everyone
I’m praying every one is having a good day
I’m am so great full for being able to walk now 4 miles a day
No breathing problems
Today it’s cool and I’m so happy about that
Im sitting on my beautiful deck with my much loved dog Opie
It’s been difficult getting out because the heat and humidity has been terrible
Im doing so good considering I’ve been diagnosed with stage 4 COBD
Im doing everything in my power to stay well
When I was told in April of this this year that I have COPD I cried all the time
Couldn’t sleep
Then I realized that I was grieving over something I couldn’t change
Once I got a handle on it and Said thank you God I’m not Dead yet
My feelings have changed
I know in the future things will change
But for now I’m going to live my best life as long as god Grants me the Grace
I’m so mad at myself for ever picking up a cigarette
But what’s done is done
How ever no more cigarettes now.
I hate what they do to us
Praying for everyone
