Breathing test next week

[gonelifting]

At the pulmonary DR`s office. The whole thing in and out should take an hour. I don`t really know what they`re gonna do, I`m guessing strap that mask on my mouth and have me breathe and treadmill or bike???
I`m on CKD now and more importantly (I think) taking NYC and Yohimburn DF, should I stop taking them at any point before the test? The day before? NOW?
The reason I`m taking this test is (long story short) had chronic cough a few months ago. Believe it or not on this CKD I`m doing GREAT Never felt better. lol I will tell the doc that when I see him.

phone up the doc and ask him, as he will know what tests he is doing on you

"phone up the doc and ask him, as he will know what tests he is doing on you "

I would normally do that but MOST docs are NOT "athletically oriented" in their thinking. Do you know what I mean? Some docs will tell you "Don`t lift" " don`t do that exercise" "Don`t take those pills" without really thinking about it.
Anyway it`s just that mentality that I wanted to avoid.

fair enough

but it;'s worth doing in case. ask him if thiere is anything that will significantly alter the outcome of the test or present a danger to you. if he says yes there isnt much u can do

Thanks bro, I think I`m gonna end up playing it safe and not take anything that day or even day before. I should be alright. I don`t know about your doctors but I only talk to the receptionist when I call (thats if SHE has time to talk) lol so I`m just gonna go in and out I`m not really worried about it. Just thought if there were "definate" do`s and dont`s about those products.

well i have no idea about the plasma half life of those drugs/supps or how quickly they are filtered out the body, but it ay be worth telling your doctor about them when your in the test room. lord knows what he is gonna do, it may not even be significant but there may be something....its not gonna harm you as everything ur taking is OTC, might as well say so
