Guest guest Posted April 16, 2009 Report Share Posted April 16, 2009 I hate prunes. I had an experience yesterday. I was in the bathroom when someone started pounding on a door that I don't use. I managed to get out of the bathroom and to the door that I do use. There were 4 or 5 Sheriff's deputies in my yard. They each had a car lined up in the road. They were looking for two escapees from somewhere. They asked if I knew who lived down the road. I didn't recognize the name but my neighbor has a son named and he lives down the road. I suspect the escapees were friends of his and they got he wrong house. I don't think that they were expecting an old lady with oxygen to come to the door. Things like that make me even more leery of living alone. I pray that I can sell this place soon. BJ Re: from Brett Hi Sher,I have same reaction to statins. Can take NONE of them!

Guest guest Posted April 18, 2009 Report Share Posted April 18, 2009 Sher, Some people report increased energy when on higher doses of prednisone. It can be a jittery, restless kind of energy and insomnia usually goes along with it. I never found it to be a productive kind of energy, it didn't allow me to accomplish anything extra. Even with that change that prednisone can make in some of us we're still limited by our diseased lungs. At least that's my experience. I know that others have been through different scenarios related to prednisone.

I'm crossing my fingers for a good sale. I guess it's not doable for your daughter to come to you and help you move. I'm sure you thought of that. Gosh BJ you just can't do that move alone. I don't mean to be intrusive but can you hire help or can your kids hire help? Often high school boys are looking for work. Or now, grown men need the work! Please don't do that by yourself! It's just too much for women of our 'delicate persuasion'. ;o) I can't tell from your post... are you using O2 when you away from home? If not that sure could be dragging you down. With my limited knowledge of prednisone (Hey, MB...give us a hand here) I think it gives you energy. At least at some level. Maybe the dosage has something to do with it... I think you know when you are "progressing" BJ... being 'tired' after being out may not be progression. .. Talk to your dr about your meds/O2 and what fears your sister has for you. You could call the Police Dept and inquire about the incident.... let's hope that gives you confidence! Do take care now! MamaSher; 70, IPF 3-06, OR. NasturtiumsDon't fret about tomorrow, God is already there! Hi Sher Sorry to hear you have been so sick. I did notice that you hadn't been posting and I mentioned it to my wife, but we have had my son, DIL, and 2 grandkids (2 & 5 yrs. old), with us for the last 12 days and I haven't been on the computer other that 10 minutes, 3 different days. My butt is dragging trying to be involved in the activities and I do feel very tired all the time----only three more days and they will be going back to Olympia, Wa. My last visit to the Dr. (April 6th) I did my PFTs and everything is exactly the same except for my DLCO---it has dropped from 55% down to 49%. In the last 10 months it has dropped from 68% to 49%, so needless to say it is starting to make me nervous. What has been going on with you? You have usually been the "rock" of the group? Hope everything is OK and we can contribute it to the weather? I did hear you talking about going to the U of W medical hospital for an evaluation? I just talked to my Dr about checking at the U of W for a transplant evaluation, so I may go there also, but I don't know when. Tell Rich hi and hopefully I will be making the trip up to Washington again and I can meet up with you guys again. Hope you get better and back to posting!!!!! !!!! G.

Guest guest Posted April 18, 2009 Report Share Posted April 18, 2009 Thanks MB.... I do remember now that my neighbor from years ago was on prednisone but not with PF.... she worked around her place like 3 people and she was then, in her 80s. Thanks for the info...
