Hi sweetninis, pulmozyme is produced by a subsidiary of "hoffmann/ la-roche". Thats a pretty big pharma company so it should be available in your country. BUT you should check if your insurance or healthcare system (whatever you have in pakistan) covers the cost, because its pretty expensive. In...

hi, i got that chip for 7 days when i started prednisone. (you wrote in another post some weeks ago that your on prednisone for a short time now, right? your bloodsuger levels do always go up pretty much under prednisone cause cortisol is a natural antagonist of insulin. so i woud'nt worry about...

Hi, the plan is the get of the prednisone slowly and to keep staying on itraconazole. (im not sure for how long, they were taking about a few months) i live in austria by the way. May i ask what dosage of itraconazole you get? They put me on a very low dosage because my liver enzymes...

Hi, i was diagnosed with a pretty nasty Abpa in july. Since then im treated with the exact meds you mentioned. Im currently on 12,5 mg prednisone an 200 mg itraconazole ( was much higher in the beginning). The igE markers are goin down pretty well and my pfts improved significant too but i guess...

hi welshwitch. histamin is a normal product that results from the maturation of the wine. as this is a natural process the amount of histamine in different wines does vary pretty much. unfortunatly a cant tell you much more. i also heard that there are some producers that found a way to produce...

Wine has a lot of histamines, which can cause allergic reactions. If you dont want to give up wine you can get anti-histamine pills in your drug store. (problably you need a prescription, i dont know where you live). That should help you, however those pills can have some sideeffects to, like...

ok, i see. 7 days sounds pretty long, but besides from beeing unconvinient its good to get that stuff out. im sure its one of the "good" coughs, that blows out all the old s**t. just hang in there!

hi, im shure that will go away after a few days, or even less. i had slightly increased cough with a little "brownish" mucus for about 2 days (on 50 mg prednisone). then it went away. now in the last 2 months on 25mg i had as little cough and mucus like never in the last 15 years. basicly only...

Hi vera, im glad to hear youre allready feeling better on the emotional side. I guess these two weeks will be enough to push you a little bit up. I started to feel a difference pretty much right away. After the first week i went up from 23% to 26% and a week after that to 33% fev. Now im at...

Hi nocode, Im kinda in a similar situation. My fev is around 35% an im on prednisone since 2 months. First the positive part: my fev was allready worse (26%) for no really good reason. (mainly it must have been inflammation from alergies etc. Because i have no "problem bacteria" like pa or...

I've been taking Creon(Abbott) since 1988 and i've never smelled or tasted anything about them??!

Does anyone know how much it costs?

as some posters before me said: everyone is different. so i wouldnt freak out because of this "low" saturation. you have to remember, that even the o2 saturation of healthy (without cf) people does vary from 100-95%. slowly declining as the body is aging. for older people (like 60,70) it is...

@thelostmiler: you nearly right. as you said you actually use ionic silver. the answer is in the name. the silver particle is an positively charged ion, so can "steal" elektrons from other molecules. it can take an elektron from an oxygen atom in onecelled organisms (bacteria). that lets the...
