What is the best way to assess lung function?
Pulmonary involvement “Many in the cohort have extensive pulmonary fibrosis. Some are recovering transplant candidates. You might like to look at my own Xrays, online at http://sarcinfo.com/xrays The lack of lung function is reversed by several factors as the bacterial load is removed by the MP. First, FEV1 improves, mine by 25%, as the muscle tone returns. Second, and more important, DLco returns to normal as the inflammation leaves the lung tissue. It is thought that pulmonary fibrosis is somehow irreversible, but we find no evidence of that. As they heal, everybody on the MP has regained lung deficits, and discarded any supplementary oxygen. You won’t find them running marathons, but you will find fully functional members of the community. 🙂 Bacterial load accumulates with age, but the only safety issues are those related to the normal management of immunopathology, which must be watched with any patient.” ..Trevor.. Lung inflammation may be misdiagnosed as a “respiratory infection
