Guest guest Posted June 9, 2006 Report Posted June 9, 2006 , I think I have got this email a little late, its Saturday, I wish you all the luck, and will add an extra prayer, as you know you are always in my prayers along with many, like , Lee etc. I pray for all every night, then add a few extra special wishes, I also pray that one day they will see there is a real need for more research into bronch and also arthritis, especially the R/A group. Lots known about asthma, CF and osteo etc, but R/A, fibro, and seveal others are just not looked at. Pain caused by these also isn,t investigated enough. If they could alleviate the hellish pain that takes over our life, we could get out and on with living, excersising to help keep the lungs clear etc. I did post to who ever asked about water in the neb. But haven,t seen my post. Water from the tap holds many viruses algae and other things that will grow, saline is the way to go. If your neb makes you tighter or cough more, use 8-10 drops of saline alone in a neb 1./2 hr before neb with ventolin saline and maybe atrovent. Most nebulisers are a little noisy. I have mine on 3 layers of that rubber backed stuff, you use under cutting boards, kettles etc to stop slipping and sliding. I have 3 layers on top of eack other. My son has a piece of rubber backed carpet cut to size under his. For the person who just got her nebuliser, there are a few tips, and please remember to keep the door closed on the machine and keep the parts in an airtight container, clean and dust free. Are you using the mask or the mouth piece.? What part of Melbourne do you come from " /I lived in Melbourne, I was born in the Bethlehem hospital, first years in Highett, Moorabbin, and Cheltenham, then east st kilda, till married then northcote, first home built in Tullamarine, then moved to the bush, Emerald, then back to Keysborough/ Noble park. I lived down there till I was 39, and moved to Queensland in 1986. Once again my thoughts are with you, even if you are at home already, take the time to rest up, and do all the doc tells you to do, for speedy recovery.
