Hi Everyone,
LB had his FVC checked again today and it was down just a little more to 47%. I thought sure his pulmonary doctor would at least hint that a Bi-pap might help him soon. When he didn't, I ask him when he would think one might be needed. His reply was at 1liter. That sounds a little late in the game to me. Are there other things that would play into that decision? His oxygen saturations were good. LB is just so tired all the time. I should have asked more questions but at the time the doc seemed so unconcerned.
Thanks guys.
