    Thinking about requesting 2-weeks in the hospital

    Oh another thing I want to add. I copmletely agree with Nightwriter and what she says about inflammation and airway clearance. Before you check in to get IV's, try and make sure that the culprit is infection rather than inflammation. Make sure you get tested for allergies, etc. It also might be...

    Thinking about requesting 2-weeks in the hospital

    Here's my criteria for hospital admission, fwiw. I normally have an FEV1 of 83-87. If dips to 78 or below, I give myself two weeks and do vest 3x daily, sleep more, eat better, and maybe go on cipro (and Tobi if I'm on an off month.) If my FEV1 is still low when I go to clinic at the end of the...

    Low oxygen saturation, good pft's?

    Yeah, I think it is mainly a vanity thing plus the fact that going on oxygen forces me to admit to myself that the disease is progressing. I frequently have bad nights of sleep and I'm wondering if my lowered oxygen sat may be the reason for that.
