Hi All,
I opened a new account so that I don't have to piggyback on my mom's account Fab1. My avatar is an old picture of me and my mom. I won't reveal the date it was taken!
I searched through old posts for folks using their nebulizers with albuterol while on the BiPAP and I found some older posts. My mom's neurologist told her that albuterol was not good for ALS patients....? But now, she is having a hard time inhaling her 2 puffs of Spiriva, due to her respiratory weakness, and she is out of breath almost constantly. So are there folks on the forum now with any advice about using albuterol or other COPD meds?
It seems to us that her COPD is beginning to resurge and is complicating her ALS.
We have call into neuro and pulmonologist too --
Thanks and looking forward to adding friends to my new account.
