Great news Jesse. Since I posted I was finally back to work, I wanted to post a medical update from my appointment at OSU last week. My tests have been showing my lungs have been stable for over a year now. Everything has leveled off, and the Doc says that he's pretty confident that I'm at where I'm at, so to speak, which is 80% lung functions. It means I can live a pretty normal life. Just avoid solvents and fumes, lots of smoke, etc.. I have dropped about 20lbs in a few months, and need to still drop about 20 to get back where I was. Big bonus is that at my next appointment on October 16, as long as everything looks the same, I get pulled off my meds, which means I can have a beer for the first time in over 2 years.
