Tremendously! COPD effects breathing and water retention. Some days could be better than others. The important thing is to keep healthy. Live a healthy lifestyle and it will keep symptoms at bay.
It could be a lot! Especially if you're tethered to an oxygen concentrator and cannot walk anywhere without it because you will get short of breath. Think about it if you are a current smoker.
