Taste Gone
A MyCOPDTeam Member asked a question 💭

My sister in law has had copd now for about 4 years, for the past 8 months she has not been able to taste anything that she eats, has anyone else had this problem and what should she do. She has gargled with everything and did everything her dr told her to do, but nothing works. Thanks and take care.

Advice Wanted
A MyCOPDTeam Member asked a question 💭

How Do I Get Rid Of Animal Distressing My Breathing?
A MyCOPDTeam Member asked a question 💭

OK we have a dog named Bella. We have had her since she was a year old (7 yrs now). I really have never been a big animal person and my husband had dogs growing up. I didn't have a clue what to do with her when we got her. She wasn't potty trained and is a runner. I don't know if my husband knows, or was just too lazy, how to potty train her. My problem is she has peed ALL over my house and of course it is now deep in the carpet. He continues to clean up after her but now with my COPD I really… read more
