    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

    @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…

    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

    @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]

    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]

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

    @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.

    @amit

    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]

    @wranger

    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…

    @jofac-ohandlin

    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…
