Dr Andrew Hall. @drandyhall I have been doing K-Laser since end of March. If I’m honest with myself I don’t think there has been any improvement, as my symptoms are getting worse. My O2 levels are down and I’m slightly more breathless. Do you think this may be due to laser and that I should stop laser treatment?

I also have an intriguing quest…[Read more]

My heartfelt sympathy for you Charlene and all Kim’s family and friends. David

Hi Charlene. It’s lovely to hear from you again and I do hope you are doing well.

I’m pleased to say that my voice returns to normal after saturation picks up. If it’s later in the day picking up will take longer, even though my O2 reading is, say 95%. I’m still continuing the laser therapy even though I haven’t see much change so far. I’ve had 9…[Read more]

Hi Charlene. Thanks for raising this issue, as I have been wondering about my own ADL. For me, this is my voice. After exertion, I don’t feel particularly tired, although my SAT will drop into the low 80s. However, I find my voice is affected and I experience difficulty in holding a conversation. I wonder if anyone else has experienced this. David

Hi Rob and Bob,

I can confirm the advice of Steve Dragoo. have been taking serrapeptase for many years before being diagnosed with IPF a year ago. Since being diagnosed I have increased my dose to 300SUs a day. Although I cough a little, I have very little phlegm and believe this is due to the serrapeptase. I hope this helps. David

Hi Charlene, Andy and Steve. @charlene

Thanks for your encouraging messages. I forgot to say that initially I had some decrease in my cough, but that seems to have returned, although there is little phlegm and it isn’t too bad.

I too, do a load of other stuff. Notably exercise (4miles a day, 10,000 steps, gym), serrapeptase and mitochondrial r…[Read more]

Hello everyone. I’ve been really interested in reading the posts from all who have experienced an improvement due to Laser Therapy.

I started K Laser on 23 March and have had 10 treatments so far. I had high hopes of a similar improvement. Sadly, however, if I’m honest with myself, I haven’t noticed any significant change. The only measu…[Read more]

Hi Leontis and Steve. I’ve been following your discussions on Natto and thought I would let you know that I’ve taken 1600fu per day for many years, with no ill effects. This, in combination with Serrapeptase has “”cured” my angina. BP and heart rate are both low.

Steve. I wish you all the best as you travel to the Phili…[Read more]

@steve-Dragoo, @lorraine

Hi Steve and Lorraine,

Thanks for your helpful posts. Yes, I meant to say that I am on 320,000SU serrapeptase. I have never found any problems with Nattokinase and bleeding. I’ll check out the B complex and Methyl Protect although my homosistein and heart are both normal.

The one think I may not have mentioned before t…[Read more]

Hi Kiran ( @kiran ) ,  Of course I don’t mind you asking. I’m happy to help in any way possible. My pulmonologist seems happy with any alternative therapies. His attitude is that if it’s helpful then go for it.

At present I am not on either OLEF or Esbriet. My laser therapy is on the schedule which K laser sent to my chiropractor. I’m paying £…[Read more]

Hi Steve, @steve-Dragoo.

It’s good to hear from you again. I’m trying to take 360SU of serrapeptase per day, but this is difficult to remember to take it between meals. So, I guess I mostly take 240. I omitted to say that I’ve been taking Nattokinase as long as the Serra, as this was the combination, which I believe cured my angina. My heart…[Read more]

Hi Kiran. I forgot to say that I’ve taken Serrapeptase for 15+ years to help with angina. I no longer suffer from angina and taking the serrapeptase may have slowed the progression of IPF, which due to a persistent cough, I suspect I’ve had for a long time, before it was diagnosed in March 2018. As I said before my cough has now reduced due to the…[Read more]

Hi Kiran. I live in Exeter and have started laser with Dr Julien Barker, South Street Chiropractors, South Molton, Devon.

I’ve had 8 treatments so far.

Hi Loraine. Thanks for posting the links for the Egyptian Study. I am now reading the 3rd one worked well. For the information of others, this is the link for the Egyptian Study, showing the lung acupressure points.

Thanks John. The only study I can find is for 30 participants with COPD (not IPF) and uses 5-30W lasers. So, not only is this a different disease, but the treatment is completely different to the class IV 10watt laser treatment being discussed in this column. Maybe I haven’t found the Study you refer to which you said included 200 participants. A…[Read more]

Hi everyone. Thanks to everyone who has contributed, especially Dr Hall. I’ve been following the discussion and have now had 7 k laser treatments. I’ll post the results after 10 treatments. Meanwhile, can someone please post a link to the Egyptian Study as I would like to read it. I’m wondering whether to include the acupuncture points in my treat…[Read more]

Hi Charlene,

It’s always nice to hear from you and particularly that you are doing OK. You seem to have a really busy life considering that you are working. Long may it continue!

No, the flight wasn’t delayed. Everything uneventful and on time in the respect. The complimentary night in a 5* hotel in Seoul was just part of the back to back fli…[Read more]

Hi Charlene,

Yes, we had a lovely time with our New Zealand Family. It was so nice to stay for two full months to really get to know our two lovely granddaughters. We are hoping to go again in a years time, God Willing. I’m happy to say that the long flights back were uneventful and I didn’t feel any ill effects, even though my O2 levels were in…[Read more]

Hello @drandyhall.

As you know this discussion about Laser Therapy started while I was on holiday in New Zealand and with your help I was able to find a chiropractic doctor near my home in England and have started treatments since returning. So far I have had 4 treatments using a protocol provided by K Laser. The frequencies are marginally…[Read more]

Hi Charlene. Thanks for your reply about my profile picture. Unfortunately I still haven’t been successful. Following all your steps until the final save; there is no save button to finalise the change.

I’m so happy to hear you’ve made your booking to Hawaii. Now you are committed, you can start the exciting part of planning in detail. I’d l…[Read more]
