  1. Hi again, - nice to see you re-engaging with the community! I recall we had a conversation (back in March of this year), in which we talked about the various medications available to treat COPD (in England). For ease of reference, here is a link to that conversation: https://copd.net/forums/copd-8.
    Based on your comment today, I would suggest you follow the prescribing physician's suggestions. Since you are already doing that and also have concerns (weight gain and the daily prescription of Anoro), you will certainly want to discuss this with your doctor in earnest. The physician will be able to guide you and also be able to address your concerns.
    What do you think?
