  1. Oh no I do agree, is it just circles you like or can it just be rounded like a bullnosed wall?
  2. Maybe because you like circles?
  3. Since we were talking about up and down arrows it would seem more linear wouldn't it?
  4. What's there to be confused about?
  5. It seems to be going up and down doesn't it?

  7. @Opah, you can't just order one lol. You need a prescription for oxygen from your Dr first. Unless you bought one from a private party I guess but I don't recommend it unless your Dr has determined you need it.
  8. Shortness of breath is the most common sign of COPD @Opah. Other symptoms are different for everyone, some have a chronic cough. Some, like me, don't. Some have excess phlegm production. Some, again like me, don't. Some have frequent chest infections. Weight loss is another symptom, one I had. There's several other signs and normally your Dr will request a pulmonary function test to see what stage it is. As well as CT scans or chest x-rays, and blood and urine tests. For me I was so short of breath that I was burning more calories trying to breathe than I could consume. I couldn't even shower or get dressed without being short of breath and each cold I got only made it worse until it came to a head in January 2020. And really it was a double edged sword because at last I have treatments that are helping me. Too bad it came at the expense of my freedom from an oxygen tank..............

  21. @Katgirl just type the @ sign then start typing the members name and you will see a list of possible members pop up. Click on the member name and it will "tag" them
  22. I remember carrying a pack of matches in my purse just in case my lighter died or I lost it (dedicated smoker, I know!) and there usually ended up being an occasion to have to pull them out. They were so old by then that I'd have to use the whole pack of matches before one would light and stay lit long enough to light the damn cigarette lol
  23. 6. Use them to make letters for signs

About us

QuitTrain®, a quit smoking support community, was created by former smokers who have a deep desire to help people quit smoking and to help keep those quits intact.  This place should be a safe haven to escape the daily grind and focus on protecting our quits.  We don't believe that there is a "one size fits all" approach when it comes to quitting smoking.  Each of us has our own unique set of circumstances which contributes to how we go about quitting and more importantly, how we keep our quits.
