Have you received a message from NHS about COPD and coronavirus advice?

Of course you do,its only natural that you feel like you do.Do you use watsapp ?Do you have facebook?

I have had Asthma since I was 18 I am now 65 I was diagnosed COPD 7 years ago I get out of breath going up stairs I haven't received a letter had a txt maybe the letter is in the post probably get it when this is all over I have been stuck in house for 6 weeks my husband is doing all the shopping bless him but I'm starting to get really fed up feeling depressed I'm missing my family and Grandchildren

Very grateful to Debbie for the advice to register. My doctor told me to isolate the week before the lockdown. Other than that I have had nothing except information on the news. I am extremely grateful to Sainsbury's who contacted me two weeks into the lockdown and have given me a slot every week for my shopping. My DOB was on their data base. I am very lucky living in a village, people rallied round offering services. With one gentleman co-ordinating everything. We even had laminated sheets for our doors to request that deliveries were left outside.

It is hard to imagine how people feel when no one has offered help. Local council web sites often have lots of information. Age concern should be able to provide contacts. If there is a local community care group they have volunteers ready to help, (I was a driver for our local one before lockdown) Silver Line also have people to talk to. If you feel abandoned you must reach out and let people know you are there. Eventually we will get through this and perhaps have made new friends on the way.

why has no one been in contact with me not the goverment no one people are getting shopping slots me i get nothing

I have had 3 letters all from my different specialists I have also received a phone call about my lymphoedema dept the nurse rang me and gave me instructions what to do help with the pain I'm getting I have to keep my arm on a cushion just do light excercise, but they did manage to get me two sleeves but I'm owing two prs  gloves so I am ringing the dept to see when they are comming still taking paracetamol for the pain so hopefully it will get easier as having osteoporosis arthritis its painful but I still have to isolate myself for 12 more weeks only allowing me to go out on my balcony wearing a mask and if people bring me parcels have to bring in leave for a while but was my hands after bringing in the packages so I am following the instructions, also I have lost a few of my friends and that is very upsetting as well a losing my pet budgie but I am feeling very depressed not seeing my family and friends  .Tiger 

Are any of you on watsapp..You can facetime on this app and is easy to download..if you speak to your family ask them if they have it.Its a great way to stay in touch and do things together and it is free.As the saying goes "together but apart".                                  Unfortunately everyone is staggered to what they recieve and when.some getting communication off different things before others.I have found going on the website for your local council has helped many.If i can help in any way .

i didnt get a letter i have copd

If you did not get a letter,did you get a text message. If not then the first step is to speak to your doctor first.You can go online,on the government website and get more information.
