Living today

Hi, living with COPD the past 8 years after a bout with lung cancer. It has been a challenge for me because I wanted to stay active in my family life and socially. I have oxygen 24/7 and a portable oxygen unit when I leave my home. I am experiencing flare ups that have left me with a hacking cough I can't control. Short of wearing a mask and moving out of the area I live in (Gulf Coast) I would be interested in hearing any ideas to help with the cough.
