Guest guest Posted May 14, 2008 Report Share Posted May 14, 2008 Ok, for tonight only I'm not going to post regarding his being tired or the coughing, but want to post what I see as the two huge positives. 1-HE DID IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Yes, travelled with oxygen. Went through as tough a day as one can. Got all the tests done. Got to stay at son's house. I know the PFT's were grueling but often others give up and you get partial. Just think after that how easy by comparison an overnight trip for another reason and without all the testing would be. Yes, when you get home from a day like today you feel like you were put through the ringer but you can rest and recover. You also should feel a sense of accomplishment. And, when its for pleasure (not this trip but future ones), you feel happy that you did it. 2-HE WILL GET THOROUGH ANAYLYSIS Maybe it won't change a thing but to find that everything you said was listened to, to know they will take all the information and pull it together and reach an education opinion, having an independent entirely new diagnosis done, and knowing that they reacted to the drop in sats and the points made on that. I don't know that they are right or more right or anything in my case, but I sure know they looked at everything carefully. > > > > > > I cough thru out the day, Ive coughed until I got dizzy Ive coughed until I passed out Ive coughed until I threw up, because I am a women the constant pressure of coughing as led to one step away from depends and pads are on every grocery list. My ribs hurt to the touch, the cough as woken me from a good sleep.

My latest worry is the coughing. How much is to much? How often does coughing occur? Every day? Every weak? Does the coughing lead to the need for oxygen? How often do patients end up in ER because coughing gets unbearable? I just stopped in to see my father. His rash symptoms continue and the coughing started. Peace is returning as I type. He seems wiped out.Thanks again -- > > > > > > > > > > > > > > ____________ _________ _________ _________ _________ _________ ________ > > With Windows Live for mobile, your contacts travel with you. > > http://www.windowsl ive.com/mobile/ overview. html?ocid= TXT_TAGLM_ WL_Refresh_ mobile_052008 > > > > > > > > > > > > > --------------------------------- > With Windows Live for mobile, your contacts travel with you.

Guest guest Posted May 14, 2008 Report Share Posted May 14, 2008 thank you Bruce for the encouragement. I read it to Don. We will truly miss you, but by golly, you enjoy the heck out of your vacation and we will hear from you periodically.

Guest guest Posted May 15, 2008 Report Share Posted May 15, 2008 /Don...I'm glad you are now home after a trip you dreaded. See, you made it ok! I'm of course anxious to hear what evaluations show for Don. The coughing is so exhausting. Good he finds Halls works! I pray for both of you! Mama-Sher, age 69.IPF 3/06, NSIP 4/08 OR.
