Guest guest Posted January 26, 2009 Report Share Posted January 26, 2009 Before I went to sleep on the couch, I called the Pharmicist and asked him how long it takes for 24mg to respond to the pulmonary " parts " . He said about 15-20 minutes. Take 1 pill every " 8 " hours, so I have decided on 6:30 a.m., 2:30 p.m. and 10:30 pm. I always go to bed at 9, and watch tv and relax, usually watching a show till 11pm. So to me those hours are great. He said they work very well when you are asleep at night. Guess what? It is 7:10 pm. Remember earlier I said I was weak and wanted to go to sleep on the couch? Took 1st pill at 12:00 noon, Earl brought home his lunch today to eat, then he went back, and the next thing I knew it was 6:00 p.m. sharp. WOW sleep right next to me the whole time. I felt really rested, still do, I took my usual stroll down the hall (Playing musical chairs all by myself), (no music, darn) and it was blissful. I did NOT get short of breath at all. Then I worked myself (musical chairs again) back to the kitchen to fix 's supper and make a cup of coffee for me all the while sitting in the kit. chair as to not get breathless or tired. Very careful about moving anything, you know? I take 2nd pill at 8:00 tonight. GOLLY, GEE! and her husband paid for my first prescription $70. as they wanted me to get a good start without worrying about it. Bless their hearts. I am so blessed. GOOD GOLLY, MISS MOLLY: I am moving very slowly and am not overly excited YET................................................. AHAAHAHA Gee, I take my next pill at 8pm, an hour before Earl gets home. LOOK OUT WORLD. MARY LOU'S ON THE WARPATH. yeah, right!! I am already feeling the healing power going on in my lungs. Am going back to the couch now. I LOVE YOU THIS DAY. THANK YOU FOR ALL YOUR LOVE AND SUPPORT. MARY LOU IPF - 02 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
