Jacobus - thanks for the reply! I'm glad you had some success with it. Were your doctors concerned at all about it effecting your liver? I have read some things that because it is processed through the liver, it should be used with caution, but my dr. just agreed that we would treat it like...

Hi, thanks - yes, i am already on lots of vitamin K. Usually it helps as well but this time is different so looking at other options. Hopefully someone else out there remembers this post from last year!! thanks I bought the gotu kola today but havent started taking it yet.

I read a post from last summer about someone using this for hemoptysis with great success. Anyone else try it since? I am at my wits end with 2 weeks of minimal but continuous hemoptysis. Want to avoid BAE at any cost so I think I'm going to try this. Really curious if anyone out there has...

I am supposed to start a course of antibiotics on monday for just general more coughing, slight feeling of an exacerbation, and the fact that i am going on a long vacation May 24 and want to feel good before going. my dr just called though and said based on my x ray the radiologist pointed out...

Hi - I travel a lot and am looking to purchase a new POC. I have the original Inogen One but it is breaking and I think I want to purchase a newer model rather than have it fixed. I was wondering if anyone out there had other brands and what their experiences are. Much appreciated! Caitlin

Hi everyone, I was wondering if any of you, pre or post tx, have had to deal with going out of your own hospital or nearby hospital for transplant (or tx evaluation) because you have b. cepacia, cenocepacia. The decision by hospitals to stop transplanting cepacia patients has effected me...
