Thank you, Sue, for sharing your experience. There are many careful people that take quick showers even without a shower head and no filter. I spent the money on the Pall with great sacrifice because I can’t take cool showers with my incredibly thin torso, and I still have fairly long hair to wash once or twice a week—though I may cut it all off! I have the Pall for four month, and at the end of that I may not be able to continue affording it. John Torrence also recommended getting a cheap Rainfall shower head and replacing it often. I had also just started washing my hair by crouching over the edge of the bathtub and using a stainless steel bowl to wet my hair, and then rinse it once it’s been lathered. Not a long time with the faucet on. Also taking a quick bath and turning the water off while I soap up and then rinse quickly under the faucet, which doesn’t have aerosolizers. We get creative with all this! Finally, I am so happy to hear you have remained infection free! You must be doing a lot of things right!
