    @cecilzlotnick

    Hi Cecil,

    Not sure if anyone answered you.  I have been taking Serrapeptase for almost 5 years.  But I strongly tell you NEVER take it close to any other pills or food.  It dissolves those faster than normal.  That can be really bad news with other pills (ask me how I know) and a waste if taken with food.

    I slowly ramped up to…[Read more]

    Hi Neha,

    I just saw the study going on with serrapeptase.  Do you have any results to share? Please use my screen name (like yours above) so I will get notified.

    Hi Joe,

    I just posted a long answer here but it looks like it disappeared.  Please let me know if you can see it.  Otherwise, I will try to recreate it for you.

    @jofac-ohandlin

    Yes I consider the placebo effect on all I take but that would wear off over time as ”reality” sets in.

    Having worked in medical in the USN, I try to be acutely aware of mental/physical changes but at best those will be subjective for several reasons.  The progressiveness of IPF seems to slowly affect the brain and of…[Read more]

    @fmarzetta

    Hi Frank,

    What is your heart rate? PAH cause my heart to work hard which creates shortness of breath sometimes.  Also, O2 bottles go to 11+ L, and try wearing a face mask.

     

    Stay well.

    @jofac-ohandlin

    Hi Joe,

    I’ve been taking baby aspirin enteric coated for a very long time.  After a white paper was published here sometime last year, I increased to 3 baby aspirin 2x with no noticeable side effects and I take many other supplements as well.

    Stay well…

    @charlene-marshall

    Hi Friend,

    Glad to see you here.  Fortunately, I am not on O2 other than at night and on the rare occasion, I need it wandering at home.  Sometimes walking I wish I had one but that is mostly my heart rate jumping a lot – don’t walk far anymore either.

    @charlene-marshall

    Hello Friend,

    I think of you every day and know winter is a struggle – for me, it is usually February as I get cabin fever and want to be outside even sleeping in the snow as I did when younger.  On the other hand, every time I show my wife a picture of some beautiful snow-covered bucolic landscape her comment is, ”I will…[Read more]

    Steve Dragoo replied to the topic Metformin Useage as Treatment for IPF in the forum Join the Discussion: Welcome to all PF/IPF Patients 4 months, 2 weeks ago

    @michael-lamkin

    Hi Michael,

    A number of pharmacies will provide metformin at a love cost probably about the same as the co-pay but I do not know if they require a prescription.

    I have used metformin for 12 years and can’t tell if it has helped my IPF or not. I do use a bucket of supplements daily however.

    Stay well…

    @jaimeluciano

    Hi Jaime,

    I had phlegm but nearly stopped it by using Serrapeptase.  Started it over 4 years ago and take 720,000 SU nightly on an EMPTY stomach and NO other meds for 3 hours on either side. You can start at 480,000 SU.

    Serrapeptase sees pills as dead protein, it dissolves them faster.  Did that once with niacin – wish I h…[Read more]

    I am doing as good as can be expected after 6+ years with our shared disease but my spirits exceed the physical dilemma that is slowly working its way into our daily lives.

    @amit

    Sorry Amit I just saw your question.  This new format is not working well for us, I think.

    Yes I take the Serra all at once – pure.  It is generally considered safe up to 1,000,000 SU’s daily but much larger doses have been given for short term use.

    Stay well…
