I Am Wondering How Well Others With Severe PAH I'm Managing The Disease On Remodulin?
I like others started with the large CADD IV pump and oral RX *(Tadalafil, Lateris, Torisimide, etc.) Now I have the tiny MS3 pump. Game changer. No IV tubing, or “mixing”. Draw up 2 ml of Remodulin. The same syringe is use in place of a cassette. It is changed every 72 hours. I disconnect it to shower. Cover the site with aqua guard. Plug backup after shower. Because it is small. I can pop it into my bra or Fanny band. I have honestly forgotten I had it! That is saying a lot. I replace the intruder site as needed. No big deal. It’s basically peel and stick. Same as an insulin spike. It can be placed arm, abdomen, side etc any place with some fat pad. 😬 it is painful the first day or so. The tissue adapts quickly. No ginormous boxes of supplies or wasted resources.
Best of luck 🎈
My severe PH is well managed with three small doses of Viagra (Sildenefil) and Torsemide, a diuretic.
I have CaddMs3 for over a year now. I started with the one that comes out ur chest and it was just too much for me so I now have the one that looks very similar to a pager. It is definitely a life changer but I have found things that they tell u don’t do is ok. For example I disconnect it while I take a shower. If u have more questions let me know. I do not get on this site to much but I’ll be looking out.
I don’t know anything on this. But, I would leave my post on here and in the meantime look up PAH on other websites as well as the drug. Sometimes I have gotten a lot more different info that has helped me to know what PH is. I had no clue when I was diagnosed. Don’t give up!
By the way, so sorry for what you have had to suffer with site pain.
