I have Pneumonia organism. He tried hospital but I asked to wait and see if the meds. Help. He was ok with that! I am back on oxygen 24/7 untill further notice. Of course,prednisone and antibiotic Doxycycline Monohydrate, and something new symbicort with some kind of nifty delivery system, and back on the nebulizer. That's all, as soon as I feel better I can resume activities, scooter riding and dog walking and housework, of course with my trusty oxygen attached.

Heads up! That's what smoking did for me 😞    NOPE

Hello, I am a 59 year old female, name Terrie, still growing up. I have moderate COPD. I am an oxygen patient, currently not in need of the 24/7 or night time oxygen. Thanks to all the great support and education I got here on EX. My original quit date was 07/06/15 on day 519 I relapsed and started over in less than 24 hours. I want to go to the great beyond being a former smoker and I shall! COPD is not choosy! and not pretty! May 1rst, 2017 I am using Dale's suggestion to put off a cigarette each time and I am down from 50 to 20. I am looking forward to my old(7-6-2015)/new quit date 7-6-2017 May 4th, 2017 I started with Marlboro reds. Nicotine is a very assinine addiction. Once addicted I found I would smoke any of it including the little cigar/cigarettes, and it's still true since I threw away my quit and stopped being true to myself. I will smoke ANYTHING with nicotine in it to get the fix. I hate smoking! I am not having a problem stopping it's staying stopped, that I am not doing! I do not buy anything but regular tobacco but if caught without it I will do anything except vape to get the fix. UPDATE POSTED 04/24/2018: Getting ready to set a quit date and begin again :)
