Finally got released from the Hospital last night. Been in there for 8 days with a bacterical infection of the lungs...from what???? could be shop dust, could be air..they are not sure. Turns out I had a reaction to many of the meds. they were using to help me, so it took much longer to clear up. I am still on very strong meds. for a period, but at least I am at home...sure don't like Hospitals much!!
I have been wearing the DustBeeGone mask allot, but not all the time as I should, but I will now have to wear a mask all the time. Not really sure just how good this mask will be. I have other types and will try them as well. I bought the totobobo mask to use, but right away found out it can not be worn by anyone with facial hair as I have. I tried to return it, but they do not offer returns for this reason....I feel they should have mentioned this "before" I purchased, and perhaps now they do, but they did not before....so be aware. How good is it?? really not sure since I can't obtain a good seal around my beard...yea, I know, shave it off and save my lungs....had this thing for 25 years and who knows, perhaps I will have to do just that.
I looked into the Trend systems, but $440 seems a bit high and they don't have good writeups. I wanted to ask if anyone out there has in the past or does use any of these helmets systems and what your results were.
What every you do, wear a mask...I guess it does help....Been a woodworker for about 30 years off and on and wore a mask the last couple of months off and on when I started all the close in sanding on the bandsaw boxes....have a feeling I should have been wearing one before as well.
