What about the blog confuses u? Perhaps we can explain it to you again.... Warwick's settings are very effective</end quote></div>

Well, part of it I'm sure was that I was reading it at 1am- lol; and then with my original 102, they had me change both the pressure and the frequency each time and not nearly as often as in your blog; come to think of it, I certainly don't think that had me change it more than 3 times for this new one (whatever the numbers were<img src="i/expressions/face-icon-small-blush.gif" border="0">), but now with reading the settings here and again, I think I get it. I'll experiment a bit and see what works for me.

Don't worry- I wasn't looking for "magic" numbers, just a starting place <img src="i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif" border="0"> .

Thanks so much, everybody! <img src="i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif" border="0">

Who do you trust more? The man who invented the machine or people who were just trained on it?

I do frequencies 6,8,10,12,15,17,20 for 5-6 mins each with 5 huffs and 5 spits after each frequency so I can get up 35-40 good spits per therapy. I learned this technique at St. Vincent's, my Cf center. I haven't gotten to read Amys info on the vest but I will to compare.

That wasn't a questioning of the advice I've been given here- just a comment about what was recommended when I got it. Perhaps if I had added a *rolling eyes* smiley after it, I would have been more clear <img src="i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif" border="0"> . Don't worry- I learned from the best of them (my mom <img src="i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif" border="0"> ) how to butt heads with the doctors, etc. over what is best for me- that is a big part of why I'm here- knowledge is power. If I find something that I think is better for me than what's been recommended, they have to explain it to me <i>really well </i>if they disagree. And then I will still check it out again- lol <img src="i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif" border="0"> .
