The only question I ask myself is why I waited so long to become proactive with my own health?? Amen. I have had Asthma for 30 years and I was diagnosed with COPD almost 8 years ago. As of February this year I am at 18% lung function left. At the end of May I was having to use my inhaler 20+ times a day. I told my husband that I felt like the end was very close. I could not walk 20 steps without the aid of my inhaler and feeling like I was going to pass out due to lack of oxygen. I was on full oxygen. I was suppose to decide if I wanted to be considered for a lung transplant. And then one day I woke up and decided that I was going to take my life into my own hands, after all what did I have to lose. Almost everyone was mad at me for deciding to do the oils but my reasoning with them was that I had tried the Drs way for almost 8 years and look where it had gotten me. I signed up with doTerra and began researching a protocol for COPD. This is the one I went with. For the first 10 days I took 3 drops On Guard, Melaleuca, Lemon and Oregano in a capsule every morning. On the 11th morning I changed out the Oregano with Marjoram because you can only take Oregano for 10 days. On that 11th morning I started a once a day Probiotic. Three times a day I layer Breathe and Frankincense 10 minutes apart on my chest. I drink 2 drops each of Lemon and Slim and Sassy in 8 oz of water twice a day. I also put Balance (helps oxygenate the blood) on the bottoms of my feet every morning and every night before bed. While I am positive the oils will not cure my COPD or Asthma I do know that they have made my everyday life much more comfortable. I am not using oxygen at all right now. I rarely have to use my inhaler. I no longer feel like an elephant is sitting on my chest 24/7. I can walk through my house without feeling like I am going to keel over from lack of air. I am coughing up stuff from my lungs that I have never been able to cough up since being diagnosed. I can finally sleep at night without gasping for air with every breath. The only question I ask myself is why I waited so long to become proactive with my own health??
