Hi Longsam2 -
Welcome to you! This is a great forum. AL is a terrific and supportive moderator. I have found great stuff here in the short time I have been a member.
We had a gentleman in our support group who had COPD as well as ALS - I'm sorry to hear that is your situation. Our clinic has a great pulmonologist who helped him a lot. One thing that was different for him - he had to have oxygen bled through his bi-pap at some point in his progression. This would be unusual treatment for ALS as you may know - therefore a good pulmonologist is a must.
Best of everything to you! Beth
