    • Close Pulmonary Fibrosis

      I was diagnoised with PF Jan 06. Was pretty stable until July 07 and lost 20% of lung capasity now at 60% or less. Dr.'s have not found anything to help me. On oxygen 24/7 and capable of very little activity.

      Treatments

      Azathioprine Not Working
      Tried twice and both times had serious side effects.
      Pirfenidone Not Working
      Started on 60mg per day decreasing to 40 mg now. Blook sugar up. I don't think at this doseage it's helpful.
