@Courtney_J I would love to be rid of the mucus I'm dealing with recently. It's uncomfortable and makes me cough and I really don't want to be coughing right now when there's the virus! Besides that I'd love to be free of the breathlessness. I can't do half of what I used to, even going up stairs now is a problem.

Hi everyone,
I would love to be rid of the shortnes of breath - stairs are a nightmare, and a long conversation is hard work. When we bought this house I did not reallly clock that the road, though short, only 30-odd houses, was uphill. Nowadays I sit on neighbours walls to get my breath to move on! Heigh ho.

My shortness of breath is my biggest problem!! I would tolerate the buckets of mucus and the cough,
if I could BREATHE and walk further than a few meters!!

Shortness of breath seems to be the "winning" symptom with COPD! I'd say that as well. Though the mucus and cough do irritate me too.
