    One thing I REALLY watch is humidity & dew point levels. Thanks for other reminders!

    I watched the video showing how to use the rescue inhaler and the nebulizer. I have what they call moderate COPD. My doc has never recommended the nebulizer, and didn't tell me about the chamber attachment for the inhaler, I saw it on the internet and just got one on amazon. I do OK most of the time, but now that summer has come, I think I won't do as well. I had two exacerbations last summer (I didn't know that's what they were--I thought I was just having a harder time breathing). I complained bitterly to the doc later at my regular appointment, how really bad it was to have to not be sure I'd get the next breath, and he gave me an antibiotic and a steroid and told me to use them right away as soon as I felt that way again. I hope I don't. I listened to this podcast, will hydrate more, I already subscribe to an air quality report for our area, and I got a fan that goes around the neck when I work in my garden. I also do a water aerobics class three times a week. I'm wondering if I should message the doc about a nebulizer, though. I don't want to go through an exacerbation and I equally don't want to go to the hospital. I'm claustrophobic and terrified of the thought of an intubation. Thanks for all you do for us with COPD and sorry to complain so much.

      It sounds like you’re doing all of the right things! Keep up the good work!!

      Janet Baker do you find the water aerobics helps? My doc is wary of chlorine. I also wanted to say I found acupuncture helpful.

      That’s the way to do it! Making small changes a little at a time is key to managing your symptoms!

    Could you indicate what app you use for checking the outdoor humidity and dew point? Thanks

    In clean air with high humidity and temperature, is it likely if I had bronchospasm last year I would have gotten used to heat or is it likely to just keep occurring?

    What's the difference between a nebulizer and an inhaler (I guess I could google it!)?

    For being in dry, hot climates: I've tried a few cool mist humidifiers from Amazon, but none really worked to moisten the air. Any product recommendations?

    • @BreatheBetterwithElizabeth
      @BreatheBetterwithElizabeth  5 месяцев назад

      No, the cool mist humidifier is what would recommend.
