Wasn't sure where to post this..thought it would be better here..

At the moment ..in Liverpool..folks who are the beautiful age I am ..who are ..or have been smokers are invited to attend a lung clinic which is going around the town..

The test will consist of a spirometry blow...looking for copd ...and assess my risk of lung cancer..

My apointment is Tuesday...

All the time I smoked 52 years ..I never worried about the state of my poor lungs...now..

I've been quit 3 years..I'm really worried about the damage I have caused..

It's just a case of...how much damage...sigh !!!

Good luck hun, 

I hope you have good new Doreen

I think you are really brave to face the music, Doreen.

Prayers for a clean bill of health.

I hope the news is better than you are expecting!  

I hope knowing the status brings you a sense of relief.  Recently, I went through some medical workups and received peace of mind.  It's much better than living with the fear and shame every time my body ached or I had a cough. All the best Doreen!

I would not want to know. Hoping for best but until a problem appeared....head in the sand

Thank you lovely peeps for all the good luck wishes..meant alot....so

I have to have another appointment..with a more accurate machine..at the lung clinic...

My biggest blow registered 66%...and it has to be over 70%..before no follow up...

But hey i was happy with that...after puffing my brains out for 52 years..I'm just grateful to still be here..

Look at the millions smoking has taken far too early...

I am so proud of you for going and facing the music, Doreen, and hope you hit the 70o/o !
