Offer ends: 14 June 2022

Having chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) can leave you feeling short of breath and sometimes reluctant to go shopping or for a walk because you are afraid of aggravating your breathing difficulties. In this practical guide, leading medical expert Donald A. Mahler answers some of the most pressing questions that he has been asked over 30 years of seeing patients with COPD, including:

  • Why am I short of breath?
  • Can surgery improve COPD?
  • What are flare-ups—and how can I prevent them?
  • How can I stop smoking?
  • What should I do if my breathing isn't getting better?
  • Can exercise help? If so, which exercises are the most beneficial?
  • What's the best way to prevent lung infections?
  • How does COVID-19 affect COPD?
  • How can I travel with oxygen?
  • Can I be sexually active with COPD?

Each chapter includes a patient vignette and there are key points and helpful tips throughout. Providing up-to-date and evidence-based answers, this book gives you the tools you need to keep active and thrive.
