I'm off, I hope.
Well after another round of tests by my lovely doctor I think I'm doing just fine. This year he sent me for the dreaded tread mill test and heart scan, all has came back fine. Heart is working just fine when put under exercise pressure and no worries with the scan. I have been offered a fantastic life

Inspiration by example with COPD
http://copdinfocus.blogspot.co.uk/ Vanessa (also posts here) has a new post on her blog on how others with low, low fev1 do stuff that can inspire us, even if it's only a longer walk, stay active. Someone on some blog called copd 'death by chair' and it stuck with me. We need inspiration and encouragement

What does all the FEV and other no's mean?
Hi all, I have recently seen my COPD nurse and the results of the tests she did were : FEV 1 0.59 L. FEV1 FVC RATIO 50% FVC 1.17 L PEAK FLOW 125 I haven't a clue what this all means or if it implies what stage I'm at, and as I'm considering making a claim for attendance allowance would really appreciate

buying asthma equipment in London/mail order
My father will be travelling shortly from London to visit me in Israel where I currently live. I've asked him to purchase a few bits of asthma equipment that are either hard to get or overpriced in Israel. I'd like suggestions of where my father might be able to purchase the following items. Would

Alivecor Heart Monitor. - Very helpful !
I am very pleased with the Alivecor monitor. It recorded sessions of: Atrial Fibrillation RVR, Atrial Flutter, PACs, PVCs, V.-Tach/PVCs, and readings up to 214bpm -at which time I had to put it down! Alivecor's email support was very helpful as well. Check into the user manual, (on the menu: HELP

FEV1 and FVC readings, Just been to my GP surgery for spirometry readings and the figure said 2.60 for FEV1 and 3.50 for FVC.
I see the Doctor tomorrow for results. I just read this with the nurse. It seems more normal than I was expecting. Just wondering if it's measured a different way in the GP surgery to elsewhere maybe?

Third ablation recommended
My case is little bit complex , I had few types of irrethemia along with artificial valve after two open heart surgeries and a scar in the heart . As most of you aware I just had my second ablation two weeks ago , and I can say both of my previous ablations were successful thank god . First one stopped

Not as excellent as I thought!
I posted recently that my FEV1 has increased from 30% to 53%. However Ive Just seen consultant and not such great news as I thought. My 53% is an improvement but I was told not to take too much notice as my history shows big variations (with some ppl apparently it does) so it could be misleading especially
