Hi All,

There is not much activity here is there? Went to doc on Tues for lung
function test, prior one in 05 had me at stage 1 mild. This test has me
between stage 1 and 2. My doc signed me up for a home respitory program
and the nurse came out Tuesday. Very informative, taught exercises,
pursed lip breathing (hard to get used to) went over my meds advised my
doc to add several (which he did) talked about getting rid of perfumes
(the hardest part) aerosols and such. She left a pulse oxi meter to
wear overnight-test went well no night time o-2. She will be back in 6
months and is only a phone call away.
My bf and I plan on having the carpeting replaced (over 13 yrs old) in
the apartment soon. I would rather go with out but it is County law 80%
must be covered. Buying new filters for the AC's and doing whatever
else we can to perserve my lungs. Also plan on getting a stool and
adding wheels to it for the kitchen for cooking and doing dishes.
Went to EFFORTS and found it to be very helpful.
Hope all is well and hope to see a little more activity here.
Take care,
Zoe
