How long can you live with COPD?

I am 34 yrs old and have been diagnosed with COPD with asthma on top of that. Iguess it has just started to set in on me that I,m slowly dying. They told me that it’s moderate. I am just wanting to know approx. I know that everyone is different so I just wanted to see if anyone could tell me!
I have had pneumonia (double) several times. I catch colds, flu, whatever is going around. I havepartly blocked airways and I have damage to the air sacs, my airways stay swollen most of the time and I have alot of mucus most of the time also, sometimes so thick it feels like I can’t breathe or it feels like there is a very tiny hole to breathe through. Maybe these details help.
