Oh, so it's not considered a disability in the States? In Spain it's been so for many years, and my mom has fought that people would consider us "less valuable" (dis-abled). It carries a special status but we don't get any financial aids by it, just some very minor tax discounts and free public...

Of course you have the right to get a copy of your records! My Mallorca doctor always gave me a printout, my Madrid doctors some times did, and my Swedish doctors don´t print them out but I have full access to see and make notes of the computer screen - and can of course get a printout. Claim...

Great idea! I have a bunch of that in my Spanish blog, fiquiviajera.blogspot.com. Keep up the good mood! It improves the immune system. :)

Awesome information! My experience with oils is that my totally resistant pseudomonas, after doing vapors (plain boiling 1 liter water and adding a few drops of oil, breathing under a towel) with lavender oil, the pseudomonas became sensitive to 2-3 antibiotics. :) I will try the combination...

I don't have a vest but all the meds take a lot of space. Some I keep over the chest of drawers, I also have 2 drawers devoted to medication and one shelf in a closet. If you designed a cabinet I'd be happy to see how it looks like! :)

I've traveled all my life, even attended college abroad (in the States - I'm from Spain) so I'm used to carrying meds. With the old nebulizers it was really heavy, hence I adore the eFlow!! :) I use a neti pot with plain salt, for sinus rinses. You could ask at the hotel to get boiled water to...

It is hard but really necessary. Try going with a friend, listening to music so you can focus on something else (rather than the exhaustion you are feeling), try biking in the gym rather than running - it's easier... Hang in there!

Lavender oil (boiling water, pouring a few drops of pure oil, breathing in the steam under a towel) made my pseudomonas sensitized again, when they were resistant to everything. I love oils and use them a lot. I have medical studies I can share, feel free to email me at lklemetz@yahoo.es. :o

YES! I realized I was gluten intolerant 2 years ago. A couple weeks ago I attended a fantastic seminary by Dr. Tom O'Bryan, who was touring Sweden. It turns out that current hospital tests only diagnose 1% of the population (those who have total atrophy of the gut lining) while 40-60% of the...

I see this post comes up again in a time when I have new information. From my own experience I would ask you what enzymes you are taking. With the old Pancrease (pancrelipase) I was doing fine, but the new Creon (pancreatine) caused havoc on my digestion. I have recently purchased Pertzye (out...

What percentage of salt are you talking about? NaCl, right? Purified sea water is a known remedy, I have not seen much improvement from it though.

I dropped from 80% to 36% in a little over a year. It turned out I had become gluten intolerant. Nearly no doctors ever care about that, but fact is that most people have inflammatory issues with wheat and don't even know it. Since dropping gluten my lung capacity was able to recover to around...

Hi Enzo, I guess the wrong or right issue depends on the point of view. I did research it quite a bit. Whearas most religions consider it "wrong" mainly because it may lead to thinking more about sex and to avoid a real relationship (which I do not consider to be the case), most psychologists...

I often smear it on my footsoles. How do you use oregano oil? Lavender helped my pseudomonas become sensitive to antibiotics again!

It was happening to me over the past 2-3 years at a growing rate. Turned out I had developed gluten intolerance. I quit gluten, and boom, flat belly all day long. If you are already pretty sure you're on the right dosage of enzymes (which is another reason for big belly), you can give it a try...
