If I go to hospital the just give me nebulizer and steroids and I already have both here at home. I finally ween down to 5 mg a day steroids. Don’t want anything stronger unless I’m really bad.
Very interesting @A MyCOPDTeam Member. Our convent was originally a separate building across the river from he hospital. Then they tore that building down and the next building to go on that site was our Cancer Center and the Nuns got moved to a newer addition to the hospital that could be reached via tunnel to the hospital. There was also a separate building a couple of blocks from the hospital that one time housed the Nuns that there wasn't room for in the hospital Convent. That building has also been torn down and nothing has replaced it yet.
Have you heard anything from or about Shuffler? I am concerned about him. This is the third time in a brief period that he is MIA.
I hope you have a good day today! Hugs, Chris

Here it is the Sisters of Saint Mary hospitals. In 1872 they order of sisters started the hospitals here in St. Louis. When I worked on some of the hospitals [Bricklayer] here in town, the sisters even had their convent in part of the building. Just a little history in the Lou.
What is SSM?
Strange to hear those of you from outside of Wisconsin say that you use SSM! I use SSM for some things too here in Wisconsin. I didn't know SSM went beyond this State. Hmmm, learn something new each day! My regular clinic is Aurora though. @A MyCOPDTeam Member and @A MyCOPDTeam Member.
