Please help
After a coughing fit or standing up too fast I am nearly fainting. Like seriously legs wobbly, taking a while for full consciousness to return.
I have mild COPD but I'm scared
I'm out of breath just walking up stairs.
Has anyone got any advice or experience of this happening with them?
TIA
Hi again,
, and thanks for this post/comment. I see you posted something similar elsewhere on our COPD.net community platform. I did see that post and responded to you there. In the interest of you seeing my response, here is a link to that conversation of ours: https://copd.net/forums/i-am-nearly-fainting-all-the-time. I do hope you have an opportunity to look over that interaction.
Please do check back and let us know how you are doing. We have a genuine concern for your good health.
Warm regards,

Aside from the possibility of a lung infection, there is also the distinct possibility that your COPD is no as mild as you think, and it is time for supplemental oxygen. If you take care of your body now it will reward you by improving. The opposite is also true.
