Guest guest Posted March 19, 2009 Report Share Posted March 19, 2009 hi Pravin, Sharon here.The pflex I got online at ebay under respiratory aids. It costs about 17-20 dollars and its a little plastic whistle looking thing you can attach your o2 tubing to it and you exercise your breathing muscles. You have to be faithful because otherwise you lose what you gain in strength in breathing muscles just like any muscle.I think its under rose medical specialties but if needed i can look it up for you.It has really helped me.

Guest guest Posted March 19, 2009 Report Share Posted March 19, 2009 Pravin... I got mine at www.allergysupply.com. for $9.50. I think it helps. It's easy to use. Use it when you're reading...or computer time.... anytime. Hope you are doing well! MamaSher; 70, IPF 3-06, OR. NasturtiumsDon't fret about tomorrow, God is already there!
