he also has RA and had a bleed in his brain last april
To the best of my knowledge the stages are mild, moderate & severe & are determined by your pulmonary function test. Thats the info I was given.
Your pulmonologist can answer this right away for you. It is determined when you have your annual PFT. My pulmonologist gives a copy of the PFT.
Look up on Google ask `What are the stages of COPD. you need to know some numbers from your test to figure out stages .Praying they got that brain bleed stopped @A MyCOPDTeam Member
