Finally went to urgent care for chest pain, got chest X-ray that showed copd, been trying for over a week just to get someone at pulmonologist to answer the phone. The chest pain is ruining my life, and quite scary. I’m fairly young and raising my grandkids. I work remote but it’s highly demanding. I barely move at all anymore due to the pain and shortness of breath. Is the pain common? Does anything help? It’s about an 8 hour wait at the ER here so I am hoping to avoid that route but not sure how much longer I can stand it. I’m wondering if I just suck it up and start moving if it will help. Only about 10 pounds overweight so that’s not an issue but the past year of napping and not moving out of fear has taken its toll. Advil and aspirin don’t seem to help.
