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, 4 weeks ago
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…

Steve Dragoo replied to the topic just want to share some of my experience in the forum Canadians Living with Pulmonary Fibrosis 5 months, 1 week ago
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]

Hi Charlene,
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.
We will continue to walk in faith – not so much for physical healing although that would be an incredible gift and miracle – but more for…[Read more]

Hi Charlene,
If I did that – apologies. I assume in a PM that is fine.

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…

Hi Amit,
A short note about Serrapeptase – NEVER EVER take it with other pills as it will dissolve them fast. Did that with Niacin once – wish I hadn’t!
I have used Serra successfully for 4 years at 720,000 SU’s daily in the evening before bed no other pills empty stomach.
Natto is a blood cleaner and used it for several years…[Read more]

Steve Dragoo replied to the topic Grief Support Ideas in the forum Join the Discussion: Welcome to all PF/IPF Patients 7 months, 2 weeks ago
Hi Christie,
In my earlier days, I was very secular – owned much, made much, and wanted more. None of these are sustainable. Indeed many would call greed an addiction that is generally fear-based as we try to hopelessly protect ourselves.
But I’ll cut to the chase. 20 years ago I had an experience that I can only explain as experiential m…[Read more]

@zebra4018
Hi Millie, et al.,It has to be a class 4 laser and there are some here who have used it for a long time. Search for laser topics on the forums. Also Dr. Andy Hall is an expert and he has IPF. He has the correct protocol. I used it for a few months in Virginia and did not need a prescription. It did help but I left the USA and th…[Read more]

Hi Wesley,
We are similar with our self-care. I’m interested but I am in the Philippines (currently 12 ahead of EDT). Been on PF News over 4 years and previously talked about many subjects. Maybe later on you might want a speaker for example like Dr. Andy – an expert w class-4 laser, has IPF…

Yes – close except I cannot go out every day as I am in the Philippines and working USA hours so an upside-down schedule. We walk Fri, Sun, Mon mornings (cooler) usually. At 73.5 and 6 years in straws work for me and a handful of supplements and of course I am sure WWE both have other conditions to deal with.
Stay well…
