This post is NOT directed at you, just using your post as the background.

My take as a layperson is that if you have a pulmonologist, you absolutely need to be in a doctor's office discussing this with them. But what percentage of us have a pulmonolgist, meaning, if we have no lung issues or other major health issues, how important is it that we go make a special appointment with our doctor to discuss this?
