I have been reading about the importance of vitamin D in particular and vitamin C. My husband, who has a different pulmonary doctor than I do was prescribed a high dose of vitamin D and it comes as a prescription. My doctor has not prescribed it for me. I will talk to my doctor about it next time I go, but I wondered if any or all of you guys were also taking vitamin D as it is supposed to be good for lung function and excaberation prevention. If you are taking it......how much?
THANKS Doris! Sounds like our Drs. are on the same page

I’m at the severe stage and would like, at least to be able to get the oxygen to my lungs. I can only hope that someone has an answer to my problem or at least some ideas as to what to do.
I thank you for reading my post.

I have seen many of you mention B12 shots for fatigue.
Which doctor or place are you getting them from?
I have to ask for everything from my doctors, they never recommend anything.
And I have turned into a vampire, avoiding the sun when ever possible.
I don’t sleep well at night either, which doesn’t help.
Maybe I could use an injection of B12 sunshine?!
I asked my primary care doctor. She had me take a blood test and now I get them every month at the clinic my doc works at
I can tell a bid difference if I use my CPAP at night or it comes off or I… read more

Mucinex is helping me now with pnemonia! The expectorant.

Hello all! Was wondering if any of you take daily vitamins and/or supplements that possibly help at all with breathing easier and just with symptoms in general? If so- how MUCH do you take daily? It’s very hard to find information on dosage and what actually helps online. So far I keep seeing things about:
d3, k2, b12, a, e, c, zinc, magnesium, NAC, coq10, fish oil, rso oil, and apple cider vinegar.
Also apparently sipping on osha root and/or ginger tea throughout the day as it can help thin… read more
