I am curious as to how others view themselves as being in the definition of mild, moderate or severe. What is your fev1 and where do you classify yourself.

My fev1 last time was 42% and rising
I view myself as mildly moderate. The reason i view myself as this is because i am pretty active, i have a job as a housekeeper 3 days a week, I also pull car parts (from the junkyard) 2 days a week and sell them online. There isnt too much i cant do. I do get out of breath easier than i used to (then again im not 21 anymore) I do get sick more often than i used to and those are the days where i feel moderate to slightly severe. But all in all i view myself as mildly moderate.

I considered myself that way too when my pft's were like yours. Now that they are high 20's I consider myself severe. My activities and tolerance of daily activities are much more restricted than at 40 percent.

i consider myself at the early stage of moderate. my last fev1 was 79%. i am a mom of a 4 month old so i stay pretty busy. i also work 8:30-5:00 monday through friday.

my last round of iv's were about two months ago due to a decline in health after i had morgan. my fev1 had dipped to 47%, thats the lowest its ever been, but thank the lord it went back up. i've had to do iv's about every two -three years. and i might do on oral antibiotics once a year.

i do hs 7%, pulmozyme, and tobi. zithro m-w-f. and i'm new to the vest, i've been using it for about two weeks. i really don't get out of breath easy. there are sometimes i catch myself taking a deep breath.

I put myself at moderate now.

But not with my CF lungs.. They have always been severe.. For as long as I can remember.

Now with my emphysema I think it's moderate. With FEV1 between 43% (pre nebs) and 57% (post nebs).
