A quick update

Well I was visualizing a 40 I really thought maybe with all the working out I have been doing that maybe I could blow a 40. They weren't close :( My Fev1 was down a bit from when I was in the joint last March. So maybe a 40 will be more realistic after I have had iv abx whenever that may be. So for now No joint for me :) so I am glad!!! My doc told me to just keep doing what I was doing and to start Tobi but to watch it since it makes me have some hemoptysis, just a lil streaking tho. 

I wanted them to do an x ray since I have been having some pain and have been pretty sore after the bleed. So I did get an xray and they couldn't pull up my last x rays to compare them to but I have some air bubbles on the right lower side but that might be old they didn't know so they just want to make sure it's not a pneumothorax. So I have to go back and get another x ray on Wed. So I figured I'll still take it easy until then just to be safe, since Im guessing a collapsed lung would really suck.  

I'm off to take a nap I didn't sleep at all last night thanks to snorer and snorett. I have renamed my dogs. :)
Happy Mon Everyone!

Oh, I REALLY hope you don't have a pneumo... would they be able to aspirate with a needle or would it require a chest tube. Will had that as a baby. Grrrr....

I am sorry you didnt blow your 40. I was so hoping you would. I know how frstrating that is. I hope that you dont have a pneumo either, I have never had one but have heard stories, something I never want. Keep us posted and keep working hard.
