Hello everyone,
How are you today? Now that summer is here, I thought I'd open a discussion for us to talk about COPD in this sunny season!
Do you find that your COPD is worse in the summer months? Does the summer heat, allergens, air polution or humidity aggravate your COPD? What do you do to cope? Do you have any tips for managing triggers in the summer? Feel free to share here!

Take care,

@Courtney_J I live in an area that has MAJOR humidity in the summer so just the air outside is oppressive. I try to stay inside in the AC when I can. I can't really go to outside events because it's too much for me. At least this year I won't be missing out since they've canceled the July 4th parade. It sucks, but I need to breathe so I have to make a choice.
