copd and humidity

[dozeydo]

Does anyone know if a dehumidifier is helpful for someone whose copd gets worse when humidity is high?

dozey.....do not know the answer, but on basic principles I would say that "humidification" is good for COPD.

Dehumidification would be deleterious.....in my opinion.

Thanks sqad - but high humidity can make copd symptoms worse, so that's why i was thinking a dehumidifier would help.

dozey....a difficult one, the only thing that you can do is to try dehumidification.
