hi
i am 69rs old.
so question, if i have what is classed mild copd as per dr daves reply to my last question what would the long term prognosis be. can i expect to still be around at say 79yrs?
So I looked back on my medical records and found that I had had a spirometey test done in February 2019 and was classed as being in low normal range. This was never followed up. So my estimate is that since Feb 2019 I have lost about 20% lung function going on my Fev1 of 1.97 then and now dropping down to FEV1- 1.57. So would I be correct in saying that I am likely to see a further 20% drop over the next 4 years. Although I have given up smoking some 2 yrs ago?
sorry just trying to figure out the longterm.
Thanks
dee
