Hi all and happy Halloween!!  Just stopped by with some terrific news!!  Last year before I quit smoking I was in stage 2 copd with 56 fev.  I have joined a study for copd at the U of M Hospital in Ann Arbor, MI and yesterday I was put through a battery of tests.  It is now 11 months smokefree and I have actually moved up to very mild stage 1 copd!!  I blew a 91 fev without any meds and a 98 after I used the 2 inhalers!!  OMG, this just blew my mind.  I just want everyone out there with copd early in their quits to know that yes, copd is not reversable but lung function is!!  Thank all of you here that stood by me and gave encouraging blogs and messages that kept my quit going.  Thank you all.  I love this site.  God Bless you all and protect those quits with your life, because it is a matter of life over death.
