Thank you for creating this device! This sounds so promising! I just purchased the bundle for my husband, and hope & pray it gives him relief. I will keep you updated, once we receive it and he uses it. Thanks again!

When I started experiencing more severe breathlessness I would panic and it would get worse and worse. After a very long time I realized I was hyperventilating from the panic, and pursed lip breathing will get me back into a regular breathing pattern quite quickly. I had to figure out everything on my own. I thought my lungs were shutting down. I had never seen anybody hyperventilate and never considered it a possibility. Was not told anything by Doctors, just given medication. These videos have prob been lifesaving. Certainly sanity saving. Using the diaphragm to breathe and nose breathing is very important too. If its hard to breathe through nose, press one nostril shut and do it that way as many breaths as possible.

Where can u get this or how much is it

[@designsbysylvan4360]

I have one and it is awesome! No more panic when I can't get a breath. It makes me focus on breathing vs the fear of not being able to get that breathe.

I use the inside tube from a syringe, but a straw would probably work the same. Basically, the resistance caused by restricting the amount you can breathe out, prevents the airways from collapsing so quickly. I’m sure this gadget would work.

Just ordered this (#2 level) and love it.

So glad you shared your experience

Where can it be got in ireland plz

[@billbinchina2011]

My pep buddy was hand delivered to me here in China today. A friend brought it. "Lost" the first order in Shanghai customs. I expected step by step instructions to be included in the order. Not so. So which is correctt inhale through the device or through the nose. The woman says she has discovered "many different ways to use the device". but those ways are not included in the instructions. Through my own research I believe this will be a very useful device and for that I thank you, but I gotta tel you the total absence of instruction is very disappointing. One would think you would share your research with the customers.

[@pepbuddy]

Thank you for your order. The package should have an instruction card in it. Here is a video where Dr Zafar (PEP buddy co-inventor and co-founder) explains how to use PEP Buddy. There are other videos on the channel that you might helpful as well kzbin.info/www/bejne/nJO8aItnh92mgdksi=eI1alFVcVRa6kPD3

Would this be useful for me I have very severe emphysema and find it extremely difficult doing any activities now I can just about walk approximately 5 metres I use an Aerobika as often as I can to help get the plegm up but on some days I just can’t blow into it all even in no 2 setting I have seen this advertised before but thought I was probably to far advanced now ? I don’t have oxygen as my levels are normally betwwwen 93/95 I’m also a co2 retainer I would definitely try one of theses if they help but the lady on the video was saying about playing tennis there is no way I can do any kind of exercise apart from just walking in my own house

PEP buddy is more helpful for people who are more breathless. In our clinical studies there were several people who were limited like you and they found it very helpful. So we do believe it will be helpful for you too. Three out of every four people (~75%) see an improvement in their breathlessness and quality of life with the use of PEP Buddy. It is possible that you would be the 1 in 4 who does not feel better with it. The only way to know is to try it. It takes a few days to know how best to use PEP Buddy in your day. On our store you will find two levels of PEP Buddy (level 1 and 2). Level 1 is easier to use and best for starters. Wishing you better breathing :)
