boosting stamina and lung function with scleroderma Posted: 02-18-08 17:51pm
Hi Everyone,
I was diagnosed with scleroderma 2 years
ago. I am an active die-hard surfer,
through summer and winter. My friends all
are hardcore surfers as well. I am having
trouble with keeping up with energy and
stamina. No matter how hard I work out, I
get winded very easily, and it takes me
twice as long to paddle out, I push myself
to point of exaustion esp on large wave
days. I am young (too young) to give in
to this disease.
Does anyone know if there are there any
suppliments on the market I can take
before I go out in the ocean that will
boost my stamina and lung function so I
can keep up with everyone? I am on
albuterol now and plaquinil for the joint
pain. Even meds that active people use.. I
am all ears!
