cindi o'h Posted October 15, 2005 Author Share Posted October 15, 2005 I got out yesterday... In conclusion...looks like the scarring is still there. It is the asthma that has been wreaking havoc with me. I am still on prednisone for radiation pnuemonitis almost a year and they want me off it. They are starting me on Singulair to help with my breathing. I will be going to pulmonary rehab. as my lung capacity is at 43%. The echo showed a small effusion on my heart, but that has been there for about 2 years. They were concentrating mostly on my asthma and with all the nebs that I had, was still not able to get rid of it. I will be following up with my pulm. closely until we can knock this inflammation out once and for all. I am not getting rid of Timmy Tom. He is old...almost 19, but he is my geriatric buddy. That is about all I know. I don't like hospitals. No I don't. I am somewhat disappointed that it wasn't something that could be immmediately and readily fixed and I could walk out with some restored breath and a spring in my step. Looks like I have a lot of work ahead of me and, hopefully, I will be able to regain a few percentage points of lung capacity.

Calintay Posted October 15, 2005 Share Posted October 15, 2005 Well Cindi I am glad to know that they know it is your asthma and I too hope ou can gain some lung capacity back. Glad your out too. Best wishes to you for all the hard work that lies ahead. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shineladysue Posted October 16, 2005 Share Posted October 16, 2005 Cindi, I feel your disappointment, but thank God they aren't saying cancer. I know you were hoping for more , but hopefully with close pulmonary testing, rehab and their bag of tricks they can get you breathing better. Know that you have my prayers . Now will you please open the pub... Love, Sue Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J.C. Posted October 16, 2005 Share Posted October 16, 2005 Cindi, Glad you got out, but still carrying the asthma with you, WATCH OUT for the **singulair** it is tought on teeth, with your knowledge you should find something that would prevent any problem with them. It may be slow to get back in form, but it's not cancer. Love Jackie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maryanne Posted October 19, 2005 Share Posted October 19, 2005 Hi Cindi, I don't know how I missed your post. Thank G-d it is not the cancer. Hopefully with the new drug it will help your breathing. Working with the pulmonary will also help. Please keep us posted with your progress. Eventhing crossed that this will work and your breathing capacity will increase. Take care girlfriend, Maryanne Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Don M Posted October 20, 2005 Share Posted October 20, 2005 Good luck in getting some air back Cindi. I am glad it is not cancer, but I know it is still a tough thing to deal with athsma that persists. I have never had athsma. Three of my 4 children have it. I was describing to my son what it felt like to walk up a hill and not be able to get enough breath no matter how hard I sucked it in. His response was, "now you know what it feels like to have athsma". Get well soon. Don M Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TAnn Posted October 20, 2005 Share Posted October 20, 2005 Cindi, I've been looking for an update and finally found it here! Sorry so late in responding. I'm so glad there is no cancer! That's the great news. The bad news is the asthma is stealing your breath and we have to get that taken care of. I hope getting off the prednisone and starting the new meds along with some therapy gives you some relief. 43% is nowhere near good enough. Take it easy and get lots of rest.
