I have had a terrible cough for a few weeks and was confirmed with having stage 2 copd about 2 weeks ago after doing a breathing test
I have called an ambulance to take me to emergency 5 times since the middle of April because I couldn’t catch my breath, and every time they say the same thing. Your oxygen levels are fine and your chest X-ray looks good

I'm glad you're doing better and able to get ANGRY!! My opinion is.. unless they have the experience of what we live with on a daily basis and feel the panic for that small amount of time, they won't get it...We all are exaggerating my friend and until they witness or experience it we are fine!!! They believe the tests, never us!! Shame on them, I really hope they sleep well at night..Take care and keep listening to what your body tells you, they are clueless, Lord, I'm angry now!! Let them play with their machines, they are fascinated with the graphs and sounds!! We got each other...get mad and throw some plates!! Helps me every so often!!! 😊
I am so sorry to hear of all your troubles you went through @A MyCOPDTeam Member. Are you doing a little better now? I sincerely hope so. I have gone through some angry moments with our hospital also, but not for me, for my sister. One doctor would tell her one thing and another doctor would come in and tell her something different. She was in pretty bad shape when she went to the hospital too, but after getting a pacemaker she is recovering nicely. I know my sisters illness is nowhere near what you went through and I don't even know why I mentioned it,but I was angry too. Man after waiting all that time only to be sent home. Could they not hear that you weren't breathing properly? Oh my gosh, I am so sorry for you! I sincerely hope you are doing better today!
I hope your alot better now x
That's awful! The way they treet people.
