Hi allyt2210
Sorry to hear about you wife, I've been diagnosed in April this year with moderate COPD but last week had another spirometry test and it's 68% still classed as moderate but I'm not doing so well I'm trying to get advice on how bad you have to be to get pip, hopefully someone will be able to answer you I'm 49 and been asthmatic all my life aswell so all this with my COPD is quite stressful as I have a disabled husband to look after aswell good luck and I hope you get the advice your looking for

Just took my wife this morning for the pip f2f interview,we were quite nervous about it but all was really good.evetything was at a great pace and the questions were all asked with sensitivity.they couldn’t have been nicer! Just the waiting game now 4-6 weeks to see if we have been accepted! Fingers crossed been a long road but the journey continues.
