Hi. I am new to this group. I am a 75 year old woman newly diagnosed with COPD ( like a weekago). I obviously have had it for several years. I'd like help with something. I am not yet on O2 and we are supposed to go to a reunion in the mountains near Denver this weekend. My husband thinks i can get by with an OTC can of Boost oxygen. I tried to call my doctor and she and her nurse are gone this week! Also, i just finished a round of antibiotics and prednisone for a flare. I think I'd better stay home here in Kansas. I appreciate any help i can get.
