clear nose

[Guest guest]

Hi, just got back from seeing allergist and lung specialist. The

allergist gave me good news, don't have to go back with him. As

long as I stick to the foods I can not eat, my sinuses cleared along

with polyps. Believe me, I didn't use much nasal spray, I

kept 'forgetting'. I feel great, no surgery and I have been bad for

decades.

Now for the lung specialist! He told me to loose weight so he can

make sure my asthma and lung constriction is due to the fat on my

body. I am...okay fat, but not so much I can't fit into chairs

etc. Besides I didn't get fat without the help of medications,

mainly prednisone. He is doing a fast reduction of that drug. I am

only heavy from my chin to my stomach. But he has decided he can't

run any tests till I am at least 30 lbs lighter. I was not pleased

but in the back of mind I need to prove it to this doctor that I

still have breathing problems skinny too. And after the allergist

told me he was the best lung specialist in the state and " he will

work with you and find out what is wrong, you have contrictive

breathing and restrictive airways disease per allergist " Needless

to say I went out and had a wonder cheese cake for desert, or a

piece anyway.

My taste buds have returned and sometimes my smell comes back, but I

have figured out which food effect me the most and I stay away from

them. I only drull at the fresh tomatoes in the stores now, not

think about buying just one as eating it before I get home.

I swore by Curves for Women, but have found that the machines have

kicked up back problems I didn't know I have and are irritating my

hiatus hernia repair site. So I quess I have to just walk. I can

no longer do abdomenial exercises or lift anything over 20lbs and

only once a day on that. I don't want to go through my stomach

ripping loose again. So I guess I will take cell phone, dog,

inhaler and dog. Phone to call for help, dog to help keep any

nearby bears a bay (ha, ha) and we all know what the inhaler is

for.

sounds like everyone is doing good for the summer and getting to

learn more about the disease. This is great.
