Age 32 and newly diagnosed with acos
So I’ve recently been diagnosed with copd, I already have asthma so I’ve got the cross over type called acos.
I’d like to know if there is anyone else my age with the same diagnosis or copd that can give me any advice please
Hi Tezza, and welcome!! There are several community members, as I recall, who have shared with the community that they are managing asthma / COPD overlap syndrome (ACOS), so you are definitely not alone.
I am hopeful those members will see your post and respond by sharing their own personal experiences with you here.
In the meanwhile, I thought you might gain some additional insight from this article on that very topic: https://copd.net/clinical/acos. We do have other material which addresses ACOS - should you be interested, please let me or any other moderator know, and we will be happy to point you in the right direction.
If interested, you may also want to register on our (free) sister site, asthma.net/register. I think you will find that is a worthwhile community to access as well.
All the best,
Leon (site moderator COPD.net)Thank you, I have had asthma since I can remember, I would just like to know if there is anyone else around my age who is suffering the same condition and how they’re handling it too
Hi again, Tezza - I hear you!
To increase the likelihood of you hearing from other members, you may want to post your same inquiry on our sister site, asthma.net. As mentioned, it's free and works the same as COPD.net.
Just go to asthma.net/register, register, sign on, and you are ready to go!
I hope to see you on both communities if you so choose.
Good luck!
Leon (site moderator COPD.net)
