[Guest guest]

Hi all, I have had all my posts returned, I hope this gets to you and the

attachments also.

If you don,t receive the attachments please let me know, as I will resend,

they are all very relevant to all bronch people and have some great info.

Cheers,

This is totally off topic, but thought it is all so relevant to all

questions asked here.

I,m sure you will all find something of interest and give you a better idea

of what many in this group and other bronch group, have looked into and also

often found useful, I have posted all before, and have lots more very

relevant info sheets on the importance of diet, minerals, air we breathe,

have many diet sheets from my job as special diet section of hospital

kitchen, etc.

What you can't see can hurt

you!

“Particulate Matter” or “PM” is a term used

to describe a collection of contaminants that pollute the air and

pose a variety of significant risks to human health. The term

particulate matter encompasses both solid particles and liquid

droplets that are found floating in the air. They come in an

expansive range of sizes and can come from natural sources but the

greatest amount of matter is generated by man-made

sources.

Some particles are large or dark enough to be

seen as haze, soot or smoke. Others are so small they can only be

seen by an electron microscope. They are distinguished by size and

those posing the greatest threat are referred to as PM10 and PM2.5.

The numbers, 10 and 2.5 refer to the particle’s size as measured in

micrometers or microns.

“Fine" particles are smaller than 2.5 microns in

diameter and “coarse” particles are between 2.5 and 10 microns.

Particulate matter comes from sources such as windblown dust,

vehicles traveling on paved and unpaved roads, as well as crushing

and grinding operations. Some particles are emitted directly from

their sources, such as smokestacks and engines. In other cases,

gases such as sulfur oxide (SO), sulfur dioxide (SO2), nitrogen

oxide (NOx), and volatile organic compounds (VOC) interact with

other compounds in the air to form fine particles. Their chemical

and physical compositions vary depending on location, time of year,

and weather conditions. For the most part, the fine particles

(PM2.5) are produced by the combustion of fossil fuels such as oil,

diesel fuel, gasoline, coal and wood. Buses, trucks, automobiles,

aeroplanes, fireplaces, wood stoves, industrial processes such as

metal smelting, steel production and coal powered generation are all

significant sources of particulate matter.

Both fine and coarse particles can collect in

the respiratory system. Adverse health effects have been linked to

exposures to particulate matter over both short periods - a day or

so - and longer periods - a year or more. Exposure to particulate

matter results in people with existing heart or lung conditions

being at an increased risk of admission to hospitals or emergency

rooms or premature death. Seniors and children are also at the

greatest risk.

Recent studies reveal that fine particles

(PM2.5) can travel deeper into the lungs, past our primary

respiratory defense mechanisms lodging in the alveoli, the small air

sacs in the farthest reaches of the lung.

A study by Schwartz of the Harvard School

of Public Health documented the fact that for every increase in the

level of particle air pollution there is a measurable increase in

chronic respiratory illness as well as an increase in mortality. A

clear example of this is pneumonia related deaths. Pneumonia is a

disease of the lower lung where fine particles – not coarse

particles - come to rest. During periods of increased particulate

pollution pneumonia related deaths increase.

In recent years studies have also begun to

reveal a relationship between heart attacks and periods of high

particulate air pollution. PM2.5 causes inflammation and blood

clotting. and may contribute to heart attacks by blocking flow of

blood through the heart. More recent studies have begun to show that

these particles may also create electrical reactions that affect the

central nervous system, which in turn may also contribute to the

problem.

Porta caths, coughing blood, and cats.

well

As for the cats, many of us cannot have animals that shed lots of fur, hair etc,

I have birds, and when the molt, I have to steer clear of them too.

I manage our rotty, but when we bred maltese terriers, I had to keep clear, and

vac daily and it was hard.

But then there are others we know who have cats and doesn,t worry them.

Its really a bit like other things that trigger attacks etc.

Most who have asthma also, can not tolerate cats, birds and long haired animals.

Porta Caths, well , I too am a firm believer in them too.

I believe its 6 of 1 and half dozen of the other here to.

I have had porta caths, that were great, never got infections etc, had them for

same reason you do, no decent veins.

and easy.

However I have nursed many people who had them and they were continuously

getting site infections.

I really think some people are of course more sucsible to infection than others

and also some who shower with them not covered correctly etc are more prone to

infection.

I think if you have choices, and veins good etc, and you can manage without--

fine.

But for those who have lousy veins, live a long way from hospitals and services

etc, then I would always and do often, reccommend porta caths.

Coughing blood, many cough blood often, and lots, and others again only when

really bad infection or copious coughing etc, also many only have blood episodes

every couple of months.

I coughed blood for the 1st 6 months, it did settle, I coughed almost

incessanltly.

It stopped and I never coughed blood again till bad bout of whooping cough,

then started again, but not for more than 3 months.

I haven,t coughed like that for well over 12 years now.

So, really don,t think theres any one rule for any of it.

We are all different have different genes, different levels of the illness and

many other compounding issues too, that also makes us so different, yet so

similar.

Thts why we remind everyone here, whet we say is our own experience, we are just

giving our opinions and experience, its up to each to check with doctors etc.

The one good thing is though, you get lots of ideas and opinions and

experiences, so you can list all, some or none and take to specialists etc, and

show them, and again they will give opinion, but they hopefully know you better/

and can either say give it a go, or a direct NO, etc.

Must go, nice to see newbies here.

Hello , seems a while since we chatted.

I did postural drainage (about 4 months ago after being diagnosed), I coughed up

copius amounts of bloody mucous. Since then only a little tiny dot here and

there.

Thank you , and Sandie.

Sandie I will ask if she minds me giving her email address out, but for the time

being

I will work on the info you have supplied

any help and links are better than none,

I have very little knowledge about the vast USA, except the waether, the

currency and all the politics.

I do know of the Mayo Clinic and the Hopkins and Albright.

Cos almost got a scholarship to go to the Hopkins to do nursing at that

time it was part of my mothercaft nursing.

But my family begged me not to go.

So well, never got over there.

I do appreciate anything anyone can assist me with.

Is Arkansis close to Sherwood, or is one part of the other?

Ellen, good to hear your son is making good progress, yes squeeky wheels can

cause mountains to move lol.

For the chap with newly dx wife.

Your in for plenty of good advice here.

A really good doctor and pulmo is a must.

Keep an open mind with all so you can try things that may only help, but all is

worth a try

and of course remember what we offer is support and info, that various people

have from experiences etc,

and believe me, there are many here who have lived with broch for many years

Some have really hard to budge infections often, others have very mild form.

Some of us have gone for many years as very ill people in and out of hospital s

most of our lives and then over years of learning,

years of trial and error etc, have finally found themselves with a much milder

case, not to say we won,t ever go back to the dreadful days as were in the past.

I am one who has had bronch most of my life and lots of other lung, respitory

problems , asthma, etc.

But seem to have gone on hold with bronch, no symptoms at all, no infections, no

hospital etc.

However still suffer from many things caused by over use of steroid meds etc.

still have asthma.

There is so much to learn, and so many things one can do for themselves too.

Hope you keep posting because you will learn much more here than Google.

hugs all Sandy

agree about the pseudomonas and having an ID specialist. Agree with you

Canadian Lung Association is even surprising lacking in information that does

not pertain to emphysema, asthma or bronchitis. Our lung association in Canada

should be more representative of the various lung diseases. They have a web page

about bronchiectasis, but it is unhelpful and speaks about bronchiectasis as

though it is a " mild " disease for everyone. I do not doubt that bronchiectasis

can be mild, but it requires care and treatment and concern from specialists. Do

not allow the infections to get out of hand. Get them treated, ASAP, and never

underestimate bronchiectasis. In my opinion it can quickly progress if not

treated aggressively and with thorough follow up. Even non-CF bronchiectasis can

get out of hand and requires aggressive care. There needs to be more specialized

clinics devoted to bronchiectasis.

I'm confused..so what you're saying is you tried to reply to the woman who's terribly ill and her daughter who you fear is being abused..and it was returned ?

[Guest guest]

I just wondered if someone responds to a question I ask and asks me a

question in return, my answer to that question will go to everyone. And

that is how it should be, right?
