I enjoy your videos so much! I've recently started a pulmonary rehab program and feel it's helping already. I've been smoke free for eight months now and I'm SO glad I gave it up. I had no choice, it was killing me. Keep up the great work. You're a great inspiration!

What causes COPD? Is it something you are born with? Does it come from asthma or smoking? I assume it's chronic so does it get worse over time?

All great points. I find exercise to be uplifting and always feel better after exercise.

Hi, I'm a rehab professional and have treated many people with COPD and you're 100% right. Exercise is essential because the less active you are, the weaker your muscles get. Weak muscles need MORE oxygen and this causes a chain reaction of being short of breath.

@MrGayKieran Thank you for your great comment. I hope all that heavy air isn't too hard on your breathing. We don't have fog, but there is about 10.16 cm of snow on the ground. It appears we may have a white Christmas in Columbus, Ohio this year. Happy Holidays to you and your family...Breathe well my friend.
