Ford Focus loss of acceleration

Car: Ford Focus
Variant: 1.8 diesel
Model Year: 2002
Categories: Running Rough, Starting & Power Loss
My car has all of a sudden lost all power! It does not accelerate as it did but when it gets up to about 70mph it seems to be ok. I need to drive to work tomorrow but i don't know if i am going to do any more damage by driving it. Help??!!

the car may just require a good service which may help but would advice a diesel specialist to have a look at it as you are dealing with diesel here

most common on these is the mass air flow sensor and egr valve problems
