Here is Ben, using the vest for the first time! The video isn’t too long, I’m by myself and I wanted to sit with him incase of a freakout. He did amazing though!
The Vest has arrived from Margaux Hughes on Vimeo.
The Vest inflates around Ben and shakes him. This helps break up the mucus in his chest. Later on, he’ll be able to stop and cough it up but for now we are just starting out at ten minutes. We want him to get used to it but I don’t think that it’s going to take too long.
Our eFlow system came today and I am in love with it! Our TOBI treatment time went from 20+ minutes to only 4! It’s also completely silent. I highly recommend it!
When you use the e-flow do they also send you the reformulated form of tobramycin?
ReplyDeleteWhat a little trooper! :)
ReplyDeleteYes, they do send you a new form of TOBI. We went through Foundation Care. They pay for you to "rent" the eflow system, you just need to order your TOBI through them. Our copay was only 8$ so all in all a good deal. They send it automatically to your house every month too.
