Thanks Fran. I really appreciate that.

Phil, those are powerful drugs and are going to knock out that infection. You'll be okay. I bet you're exhausted with all that coughing. I heard just a little during our phone conversation last week and it sounded like you were really working. I'm glad you have the nebulizer.

Also, do you have a HEPA air purifier running in your house? You should be in very clean air to make it as easy as possible on your lungs.

You will beat this Phil, I was hoping it wasn't that infection! Your Batman you will conquer this bad infection!

I don't have a HEPA filter in the house. We don't have a forced air system in the house and I am mostly in the basement.

Sangye, do you strongly suggest I get one?

[Sangye]

Yes I do. I have one and run it non-stop. I don't notice that the outside air is bad until I get home and can tell how clean the air is in my basement. And I have a major black mold problem. Without the HEPA I'd be in trouble.

You can get a good one for a medium-sized room for about $100 USD. Make sure you get one that says "True HEPA." If it says HEPA-like or anything else, it won't filter the small particles like mold and bacteria. With your immune system working so hard to fight this bacteria, I think it's a good idea to cut down as many other microorganisms and air particles as you can.

This is the HEPA air purifier I have. It's not that loud and it's lightweight--easy to carry to another room.
