COPD Stage 4

What does that even mean? I have had COPD for about 5 years. I didn't know there are different stages. Until my last episode almost took me from here. And then my Dr said stage 4... what does that mean?

  1. Hi there, COPD has a few different stages and these articles helps explain them and how they're different: https://copd.net/basics/copd-stages and https://copd.net/basics/copd-stages/stages-explained and https://copd.net/clinical/how-stages-helpful All the best, Sam S. (COPD team).
