Harefield Hospital. Review
Hi everyone, Went to Harefield Hospital for a NIPPY review. I have severe COPD, on 1 litre oxygen and borderline CO2 retention. Several months ago, I was given a Bi-Pap machine (Positive Airways Pressure) The idea is that this machine keeps your airwaves open at the correct level while you sleep.

Cold sores/Herpes simplex
I have read lately that some of you are suffering from cold sores. Aren't they not the most horrible things to suffer from ? I have had them often since childhood and at times they have been so bad that I can't even eat and have had to drink through a straw. At times I have had them very close to my

Has anyone had a lung transplant?
They are starting to talk to my husband about lung transplant, just starting the pre-transplant listing testing period. Has anyone had a lung transplant? If so, what was it like for you? Suggestions of things to consider?

Some help please
My dad has Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis it's a very recent diagnosis. He's 66. Has anyone tried the serrapeptase or nattokinase enzymes? And does anyone know the exclusion criteria for lung transplant for the UK?

Treatment Approaches
I have a question for anyone reading this. The way that lung cancer is treated seems to vary around the world and even in the UK. My husband has non small cell squamous lung cancer, stage 4. It has spread from his right lung to his scapula. He is having 6 rounds of chemotherapy (gemcetibine & carboplatin

There was I poodling along...not a bother on me...when I began to wonder whether or not this was too good to be true. I'd reached the 1200's you see in someone's tree and was getting quite blasé...plenty of records to check the facts...the dates were slightly iffy but then dates often are... And it was
