Treatments and PH

Posted on April 27, 2018

"Not in work so not feeling it too much today, next month is my decision day when I find out what medical treatment I will be on. I will have to make a decision on which treatment hope to take on. I hope everyone is doing well, take care." -A member of myPHteam

On myPHteam, the social network and online support group for those living with pulmonary hypertension, members talk about a range of personal experiences and struggles. Treatments are one of the most discussed subjects.

Here are some conversations about treatments:

I found a better way of dealing with my anxiety before showering. I guess I wasn’t realizing that I must take breathing treatments more often, and my anxiety medicine earlier to be able to rest before I take my showers.

I have blood clots in my lungs which showed up following chemo treatments. I am in hopes of improvement with the surgery. I am very grateful for this support group. I have felt so alone the past year.

Kinda had a rough night. Ended up with two breathing treatments and back pain.

Here are some question and answer threads about treatments:

What are treatment options if you have both PH and COPD?

Can letairis lower platelets?

How has Orenitram worked for you?

Can you relate?

Have another topic you'd like to discuss or explore? Go to myPHteam today and start the conversation. You'll be surprised just how many others may share similar stories.

Feel free to ask a question here.
