I know what you mean...I research for hours online about my health....there is no cure for COPD...and doctors do not impress me either...The top places to research is mayo clinic in Minnesota...John Hopkins University,...I read Webmd but I wonder about that site...I read about clinical studies...I try to stay well informed....The only person I trust with my health is me...

It's a known fact that there is no cure for COPD and it is a progressive disease that can only be slowed down by quitting smoking and using many different medications available that are all expensive.

Hello ladies, and I do like that definition of intuition, @A MyCOPDTeam Member. It took me a long time to at least Consider my intuition against a few doctors' orders, and I wish I had paid more attention to myself sooner. Yes, doctors do some good, definitely, but no one has lived in my 81 year old body except me, and I have accumulated some common sense.
I'm not sure why, but female doctors listen to me better than male doctors, although they're both equally nice.
Have a great day!

@A MyCOPDTeam Member I unfortunately can't follow your link (maybe cause I'm living in Europe). Doctors can still be very useful (most of the time😜) in case of emergencies. Regarding COPD, there are some therapy which do help, antibiotics in case of Pneumonia, O2, prednisolone... I also think everyone should listen to his own common sense. Hugs 🧸
