  My husband has COPD and has been using Combivent as his rescue inhaler for a number of years. Unfortunately they have changed the inhaler system and he doesn't feel like he gets the same immediate results he did with the original inhaler. He wants to buy the original Combivent on the internet and I'm just not sure how safe that is. Does anyone have any experience with ordering online medicine or know of an alternative for Combivent he could ask his doctor about?

  With spring on the way (I hope) my redecorating juices are flowing. I would love to spruce up our bedroom with a fresh coat of paint but I don't want to irritate my husband's lungs. I'm the one who would be doing the painting but even with windows open I know the fumes/smell can linger for several days. I've seen "no smell" paint advertised but have any of you ever used or been exposed to any of them? Any recommendations for wall paint (satin finish) that are safe for someone with COPD? Or...
