Hi @kristina, your ears must have been ringing! I was talking about reaching out to him with another member today, so I’ve just sent him an email to check in. I also hope he is okay! I’ll let you know when I hear how he’s doing. Char.

@kristina Hi Kristina – I do need O2 over here once in a while but it is hard to find as are most quality meds – is what I meant. But my O2 need is rare and short term (seconds) so far. I am 71 and diabetic and have PAH but this morning I took my pulse with my O2 meter and my heart was 55 BPM and saturation was 97. A year ago saturation was 98…[Read more]

No, it is arithromiacin 250 mg. M-W-F, and Prednisone 7 days 10 mg. I also take Trelogy inhaler daily in place of Advair and Spiriva. The doctor talked to me about thre fibrosis medicine recently but said there were serious side effects. I’m doing really good on what I’m taking now. It is the first time in 20 years I’m not coughing all the…[Read more]

We must have been writing each other at the exact same time @Kristina! That is funny 🙂 I just let you know that Steve is doing okay, I’ve been corresponding with him over email but we’re unfortunately having some issues with his login onto the forums. I don’t know why, I’m trying to sort it out with him but he’s been responsive to my emails! So…[Read more]

Hi @kristina — happy holidays! I’ve been in touch with our dear friend @steve-dragoo over email a few times. He is doing okay, just is having log-in issues with the forums 🙁 We’re trying to figure out the technology glitches for him but aren’t having much luck. I miss him on the forums too! Hopefully we can figure it out soon. Char.

@kristina, @charlene-marshall – most kind of both of you to check-in. Yes, I have had a few issues with the forums and newsletter for a while but doing just fine. Also being 13 hours ahead of East USA, my timing is a little off and I have more things to do now that I am reunited with my family.

Since coming here in May, I have used no O2 and…[Read more]

PS> – It should say I feel “no” great need for O2.

Yes, we had 2 typhoons but most of them hit the northeast offshore and turn north and streak across the middle islands known as the Visayas or sometimes to the southern part of the northern islands where Manilla is; known as Luzon (Confusing because there are over 7600 islands in the…[Read more]

Good morning Kristina!
I know I’ve been out of touch, have been camping this week and just got home last night. Only got to get online a couple times while I was gone. Anyway, I do not use contact with the skin. I really don’t think it makes a difference whether there is contact or not. But a medium application head is better than a wide beam…[Read more]

Hi Kristina! Yes, I know that the Wei products have been very helpful for Steve. I have been taking them and my cough is certainly better, so it’s got to be doing something! With the research that I have done on the Wei products I have read that many times it will actually reduce the fibrous tissue in the lungs and that is the main reason that…[Read more]

Hi Kristina – I have talked with some via email, Skype, or PM on the forum board. So thanks so much for asking. The herbs help a lot. Since coming here I have not used O2 at night because I don’t have a concentrator yet and had only a couple very minor issues. Walking stairs is easier, breathlessness is far less and a lower heart rate…[Read more]
