Doctor appointment went well.

Went to see my primary care doctor in order to get medications renewed. She was surprised to see me without oxygen and that I no longer was taking Advair. She said I looked well but wanted to hear what my lung doctor had to say about it. I told her I would be seeing him on the 27th of September. She was impressed that I had not been to the hospital in over 16 months or the doctors office. She was actually surprised that I was alive. As I mentioned before the hospital was my second home. She said that she wanted to see me every six months. I told my sister that wasn't going to happen. Anyway all is well. My sister went with me as I get anxious when going to doctor.

It sounds like you have had quite the journey yourself. I am very sorry about your son and your illness. If you go back and read my posts you will see my long journey. I basically came back from the dead. The doctors had pretty much given up on me and were starting to prepare me for death. I wasn't quite ready for that. Left the hospital in worse shape then when I went in. They removed some of my lung that didn't need to be removed and sent me home with a staff infection. There were many more hospital stays and even went to a nursing home for awhile. I than was babtized and gave away most of my belongings preparing myself for the worst. But it didn't happen but it wasn't getting any easier

I couldn't get out of bed without oxygen and I was miserable. That is when I started praying asking God to either take me or help me. I slowly weaned myself off oxygen and finally turned it off the other day. It is still hard. I can't walk far without resting but I am a lot better than I was. I am starting to use essential oils as well and I am researching Buteko breathing which is suppose to help. I still somewhat listen to my doctor but listen to myself more.
