Guest guest Posted May 7, 2005 Report Share Posted May 7, 2005 that happened to me about two years ago. i also ended up getting a new compressor neb, and a year later, i picked up the omron, which has more than saved me many times. since getting the omron, i no longer need to worry about taking sick days ( I can just neb at work), or lugging my compressor to work and finding a secret spot to use it. i'm glad it was the neb, doug ---- and not you!! glad your doing well heather uca79ii <uca79ii@...> wrote: My asthma has been getting gradually worse over the past few weeks. Also, my nebulizer machine was taking sometimes over a full hour to completly use up my combination mixture of Xopenex, Atrovent and Pulmicort. I took the neb machine to our local health equipment store, the technician looked at it and said it was fine. I bought new filters and new neb cups. Still no success. Yesterday when I had my 2 bi weekly Xolair shots, it was also time for a neb. The doctor hooked me up to the office neb machine. This time it took only 20 minutes and it opened me right up. Hmmmmmm the health store did say that they DIDN'T carry that brand of neb machine. Hmmmmmmmmmmmm, something fishy here? I called the neb machine manufacturer and they told me that it WAS the machine; to send it back for replacement. And the whole time I thought I was getting worse! WHEW! While I am waiting to get my machine back, I am using my portable Omron (see picture section of the group at left). Happy breathing everyone Doug, your group founder Everybody has barriers and obstacles. If you look at them as containing fences that don't allow you to advance, then you're going to be a failure. If you look at them as hurdles that strengthen you each time you go over one, then you're going to be a success.
