Hi, all. I was wondering if anyone else has problems spending time outdoors? I can't seem to handle the humidity in the spring and summer months and in winter the cold and wind gets to me as well. I have a nice garden but I can't enjoy it most days and I have to stay indoors. Does anyone else have problems with this and how are you dealing with it?

Hello @mariejo‍, thank you for opening this discussion. I'm sorry to hear you aren't able to enjoy the outdoors, I imagine that must be so frustrating when there's beautiful weather and you have your garden right out the window. Let me tag some other members who can possible share with you!

Hi everyone, how are you doing? Do any of you also find that outdoor weather - be it the cold, the heat, the humidity or even the dryness - affects your COPD? If so, how do you manage this? Have you found any way to enjoy the great outdoors or other outdoor activities you love?
