Guest guest Posted September 10, 2008 Report Share Posted September 10, 2008 May, You have to order the Oxy-view from the company. Your own optician can tell you what size to order. Go the the website...oxyview.com and they will send you the literature. When you get them, you'll find that there are clip on sunglasses that work just fine. i love wearing mine . They really hide most of the tubing and they look rather stylish. I hope there is a way for you to get them way over there !.

Guest guest Posted September 10, 2008 Report Share Posted September 10, 2008 May, I love my Oxy-views. Yes, all the needed gear is ordered through them too. They aren't cheap...$250.00 US..but they give me back my face! NO tubing on my face and only the litttle cannula things in the nose which are almost invisible. I hope you can get the info so that you can see what I mean about size . There are several styles as well. Z fibriotic NSIP/05 Z 64, fibriotic NSIP/o5/PA And “mild” PH/10/07 and Reynaud’s too!! No, NSIP was not self-inflicted…I never smoked!

Guest guest Posted September 10, 2008 Report Share Posted September 10, 2008 I'm going to try to get an optometrist to look and see if they think they can make them work with my prescription since mine is so extreme. The problem is the size and the design. But, hopefully.

Guest guest Posted September 10, 2008 Report Share Posted September 10, 2008 Bruce, My optician used the lightest lenses.. very thin plastic. The frames are still way heavier than my regular very light metal frames, but to just have one thing hooked on my ears and nothing on my face is worth the extra weight on my nose. I've been wearing glasses for 61 years so I'm used to weight being on my nose anyway. The company suggests that the lightest lenses be used. Do you have the literature for the Oxy-views? They have to be purchased from the company..there is no other way to get them. There are several styles and sizes available. www.oxyview.com Z fibriotic NSIP/05 Z 64, fibriotic NSIP/o5/PA And “mild” PH/10/07 and Reynaud’s too!! No, NSIP was not self-inflicted…I never smoked!

Guest guest Posted September 12, 2008 Report Share Posted September 12, 2008 Hi May, I think I am going to say no to the methotextrate. It just doesn't seem worth the side effects- although a small part of me thought, hmmm chemo, I could be skinny again! I am trying to exercise more and have started doing yoga stretches in the afternoon. Having to use more oxygen is suddenly a big motivating push to quit eating pie and all the other goodies. You seem to be as busy with little ones as I am. Aren't they fun? I am taking two of my grandkids to see a 3D movie today. I haven't been to one since I was a kid and watched the 13 ghosts with my sister. At the end of the movie the announcer said if we took our 3D glasses home we could see "creatures from the afterworld in our own homes." My sister and I wore our glasses to bed for about a week desperately hoping to see a ghost and at the same time, scared to death that we would! R.

Guest guest Posted September 12, 2008 Report Share Posted September 12, 2008 denise you made me laugh re weight loss and chemo. i'm glad you have decided against the methotextrate. you and geeta look lovely in your photo. i finally got a look. you figure looks fine to me. what's your bmi? what prompted you to try to drop the pred level? i thought you were on a maintenance dose and were into a workable routine with it. i have been collecting my bros' kids from school and have had a heavy cold. i am so glad its friday. today whilst collecting them i was stopped by the police and charged with driving without a seat belt. i will have a fixed penalty of 30.gbp. i was on an 800yard journey. i am very bad at forgetting to put on my seat belt but feel very aggrieved as i was not even on a main road. it has been one of those days for me today. i made a casserole and burned my fingers on the handles and have been sitting with my fingers in a pot of water. i will be so glad when its time to go to bed and put today behind me. hahahaha. may > > > Subject: Methotextrate - denise > To: Breathe-Support > Date: Wednesday, September 10, 2008, 1:40 PM > > > > > > > > denise > this drug is listed on the lists of drugs that can cause > pf. i am sorry to hear about the o2 but if its what you > need, its what you need. i am using mine more and it takes > the pain out of my fingers. at least we are both still at > the stage where we can sit without it whilst quiet. i'm > going to get myself a portable concentrate and ive been thinking > of those oxyview glasses. i sent an email asking if they > have a uk distributor. wish they had some stylish sunglasses. > > may uip 0606 > glasgow, scotland > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
