November is COPD Awareness Month! 💙

Breathe easier and take charge of your lung health. Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) is a progressive lung disease that makes it hard to breathe, but early detection and treatment can make a huge difference in your quality of life.

Don't dismiss a cough or shortness of breath as just "getting older" or a "smoker's cough."

Watch out for these common symptoms:
* A cough that won't go away (often producing mucus/phlegm).
* Shortness of breath, especially during daily activities.
* Wheezing or chest tightness.
* Lack of energy or unusual tiredness.

If you or a loved one are experiencing these symptoms, or have a history of smoking, please **consult your healthcare provider**. An early conversation with your doctor is the most important step to get tested (often with a simple breathing test called spirometry) and start managing your lung health.

Take a deep breath and prioritize your lungs this month!
