The American Lung Association can help. AAAI can help, but the greatest help may come from your lung specialist, who may explain YOUR specific lung disease and how he plans to treat it. Don't leave his office until you have every one of your questions wirtten down in advance to show him a compacted presentation. If he is a good doctor, he will take the time to answer then, or on callback before leaving his office in the evening. COPD is a very long haul.
