    I was diagnosed with COPD by an idiot.
    I'm a severe allergic asthmatic... so, what did said idiot do?  Why, she poked me full of fifty allergens...
    THEN she wanted to give me a breathing test...   I was ALREADY having DIB from the allergens, and hitting my nebulizer like there was no tomorrow.
    THIS was a good time to subject me to a breathing test... because, "after all," I had been treated with medication.
    I told her I was dizzy, that I wasn't interested in her test... and that in my personal opinion she might be stupid.
    I got the bloody test... and THEN she prescribed singulair... and an inhaled powder for my "COPD."
    I threw away the singulair...  I tested the powder... twice.
    I was pretty sure I was going to DIE... what to we NEVER, EVER, under ANY CIRCUMSTANCES do to an extreme allergic asthmatic?
    We don't give them something that will totally dry out their breathing passages.
    I was up for twenty four hours... using my nebulizer and sipping hot tea.
    These people are NOT trustworthy...  if they tell you that you have COPD, and have had asthma all your life... RUN, because COPD is the new trendy disease.
