I am 50 years old and have been diagnosed with COPD in the last year. I started having breathing problems in the fall of 2001, and finally quit smoking the following June. I just watched a documentary called 65 Red Roses and decided to go online and read up on Cystic Fibrosis as I have 2 - 2nd cousins (brothers) that were diagnosed with the disease when they were young. When I found a site online that showed symptoms of the disease, I was startled as I have about 10 of them. I then entered adult onset CF in my search engine and found this site where a 52 year old man has just been diagnosed. I will need to see my doctor and get tested as I always felt there was more to my not feeling well and breathing problems than what the professionals diagnosed. The only reason I was tested for COPD was due to my insistance. I am so scared for my daughter as she has asthma. I hope that's all it is.
