Re: got my lung test


BM - surely if there was a problem that needed addressing they would be in touch??? I would certainly hope so anyways. So in a way - no news is good news . . . don't you think?

It would be a weight of your mind to know for sure though

I do hope that the results are what you are hoping for BM, and that it's nothing serious.

Re: got my lung test


Hi BM, I was very much like yourself. I smoked and didn't seem to have any problems, but I stopped 10 years ago and within weeks was having breathing problems. I have inhalers etc and am fine now. But they say when you stop smoking it takes a while for the nicotine to get out of your system, which can cause a few problems in the short term. I hope you feel a lot different in a few weeks. Going through the menopause was rotten till I went on HRT. Then it was plain sailing. I was on that for 15 years and they took me off it, I had sweats etc for a while, then just got back to 'normal' (if there is a normal, for us poor females) Ha, Ha,
Take Care,
Truly Hope you feel better very soon,
Best Wishes,
Anne.
