I have COPD - Let's introduce ourselves!

@Tuckboy69 Hello Tuckboy69, thank you for starting this discussion and introducing yourself! We've had some new members join us lately, so I thought that maybe it would be a good idea for us to introduce ourselves to one another here! What do you think?

Hello members, I hope you don't mind that I've tagged you! Let's introduce ourselves? Tell us a bit about yourself! How long have you had COPD? How were you diagnosed? What do you do to manage your symptoms day to day? Do you have any tips for us on how to "live your best" with COPD? Feel free to share here!

Hello Courtney I am in stage 3 severe I had a letter to stay in for 12 weeks this is my 5th week but I do have a garden too sit in so not to bad stay safe 

Hi all, i, i'm new to the group ! I was diagnosed with copd 5yrs ago and am on 2 inhalers. Luckily for me, i work for the council and am on a risk assessment for my condition which means they have put me on 12 wks isolation. I have not heard anything from the government, nhs or my GP. I did speak to my GP but was told i was not on the vulnerable list even though the virus attacks the lungs and my lung function is below 50% ! A lot of websites say people with lung/respiratory should be on the vulnerable list so i am feeling rather forgotten about.
