When I first started having lung problems, that was one of the first tests they conducted. Probably the worst, too. Lung washing. Just sounds ewww, doesn’t it?

I have developed a problem with wheezing. It starts around 7 pm and goes until around 9 am. There is none during the day. Doesn’t matter if I am horizontal or vertical or where I am. It is like clockwork. It has the doctors completely stumped. It is like the wheezing (which is extremely loud) is on a timer.

They put you in a twilight sleep. Not quite completely out, but you don't really mind what they are doing. You can follow directions like cough on command. They put liquid in your lung and then suck it out and analyze the junk that comes out. I felt like I had been hit by a bus for about a week after. The doctor told me later that is because it is almost like giving you pneumonia on purpose.

The only good thing to come from it was they ruled out a bunch of potential problems.

I've been studying these lungs. It's a hands on effort but I gotta do what I gotta do!

This is a full time job and Obummer care will fund some part time workers! Any volunteers?

I had a cough for the past two years, mostly at night. I have tried everything. The ENT scratched his head and admitted he didn’t know. We finally found it was caused by my asthma. It was just a tickle in the throat that caused me to cough violently. He found that it was a type of asthma attack. I will bring this to his attention, as I am extremely allergic to mold.

Do you have forced air heat, on a timed thermostat? Could it be something in the ductwork contaminating the air in your home?

How did it feel afterwards? I mean after your lungs dried out?

It would be great if it was like it how you feel after a fresh shower (or I would hope so)

I keep thinking I have a lot of sawdust and old car paint stuck in there

It starts around 7 pm and goes until around 9 am.

Allergens around the house, but not at the workplace?
