Wasn't sure where to post this..thought it would be better here..

At the moment ..in Liverpool..folks who are the beautiful age I am ..who are ..or have been smokers are invited to attend a lung clinic which is going around the town..

The test will consist of a spirometry blow...looking for copd ...and assess my risk of lung cancer..

My apointment is Tuesday...

All the time I smoked 52 years ..I never worried about the state of my poor lungs...now..

I've been quit 3 years..I'm really worried about the damage I have caused..

It's just a case of...how much damage...sigh !!!

I hope knowing the status brings you a sense of relief.  Recently, I went through some medical workups and received peace of mind.  It's much better than living with the fear and shame every time my body ached or I had a cough. All the best Doreen!

Thank you lovely peeps for all the good luck wishes..meant alot....so

I have to have another appointment..with a more accurate machine..at the lung clinic...

My biggest blow registered 66%...and it has to be over 70%..before no follow up...

But hey i was happy with that...after puffing my brains out for 52 years..I'm just grateful to still be here..

Look at the millions smoking has taken far too early...

About us

QuitTrain®, a quit smoking support community, was created by former smokers who have a deep desire to help people quit smoking and to help keep those quits intact.  This place should be a safe haven to escape the daily grind and focus on protecting our quits.  We don't believe that there is a "one size fits all" approach when it comes to quitting smoking.  Each of us has our own unique set of circumstances which contributes to how we go about quitting and more importantly, how we keep our quits.
