    Went to stem cell therapy in Arizona for treatment. It didn’t help a bit, just wasted money and time.

    Hello,
    Thanks for a very inspiring story, I will be 74 soon and try to get a transplant. UCSF declined me, but
    I called UCLA for a second opinion. I had an echocardiogram, and PFT, which they requested before making an evaluation.
    I hope I will be reconsidered.

    Hello,

    The 3 to 5 yes prognosis that they say is old info, long time ago. I was listening to a seminar by a pulmonologist and said that patient s  now can even live more than 10 years today. I think we all need PMA. Positive mental attitude

    I also have regular post nasal drip in the morning and I use Flonase, and

    mose clips which help.

    I may also try Claritin it it gets worse.

    Hello,

    Have the same issue, which is refractory coughing most of the day. I have taken different cough meds, but they are only palliatives. I still go to the gym at least 3x a week and do threadmill and weights for one hour.  I observed I easily get tired not like before.

    Hellos folks,

    I just stopped the Wei regimen after 3 months because I didn’t see any effect. This is my second time of using it. The first time I used it also for 3 months, with no effect , and waited for another 6  months, and used it again, thinking it may work. To me I just wasted my money. I hope others may have better luck.

    My coup is continuos  from the time I wake up. I also have nasal drip. I take benzonatate prescription meds 3 pearl tablets  3x a day. Mucinex syrup also helps me but instead of the 12 hour effect I observed it’s effect is around 8 hours. I also have halls candy and that helps me control my coughing.
