Yes, this is the same Duke as Tricia and Gwyneth. I didn't go to the hospital, I went to the doctor's office not too far from there.
My appointment went better than I thought it would.
My lungs are stable. My FEV1 is 31%, it was 30% last time. My FVC was 59%. My weight is up to 114lbs. I did a fast walking test to see if my O2 Sats would drop when exercising. They dropped a little from 93 to 91-90, but not bad enough to need oxygen. They said those numbers looked very promising. I think because I am on Zyvox right now and it might have given a slightly false reading. I will just use my pulse ox when I exercise to see if it drops, if so, I will give them a call. How low should it drop before I need to contact them? I was told to need to exercise. Which I dont right now, but I know I need to and how important it is. So, I'm gonna try to work on it. I got my Flu shot and been feeling a little crappy from that today. Other than that, the appointment went well and they were happy with me.
Thank for the prayers. I know they helped. I woke up that morning feeling better with my breathing than I had in the past few weeks.
AnD, I hope you have a good clinic appointment.
