What is the most frustrating part about living with COPD?

Not being able to interact with my grandchildren like I used to do. I miss not being able to go to their games because of the weather or the way I am feeling.

That is understandable,

My most frustrating part is not being able to do things I use to do. I can't walk a block any more without getting tired. I can't sing in church. I can't go shopping without getting tired. Tiredness is my culprit because I can't breathe.

Having to bring oxygen with you and hoping it lasts.

YES!! Hoping it lasts fr fr!! It’s scary! So, if I can, I just take an extra tank..the fact of putting a new tank on the gauage and praying you do it right!! That’s scary too! Not being so much of a free spirit I’m tied down to this damn o2..I kno it helps me a great deal but I can still say how bad I HATE the fact COPD has ruined my happy life I once had!! Now all I have the feeling for when u boil it down is doom

Not being able to go without the oxygen. Just like a dog that is tied up all the time. Even when you try and sleep
