So I have been reading a lot, & Thank you all for your input, Very helpful. I'm not exactly sure what's going on with me, Only read what My CT said, Seeing my Dr soon in hopes he will tell me how long I have had PF & what's next. I am learning a lot here, But Have to do research on things I read, I have been very breathless, & wondering if I will be on 02 all the time. I have a pain on my left side & back that never goes away, I am 65 yrs old so  maybe old age ? Hahaha, I have been very weak & walking is near 0% !! So I just want to thank everyone for all the info you put on this. I find it helpful. Guess I will hope for the best, Also hope the best for all of you. Thanks again, Nancy

    Hi again Nancy.  Yes learning as much about IPF as you can enables you to better understand your diagnosis and also to discuss your situation with your Doctor and not just be a listener.  There are also some good article on interpreting Lung Function Test results and there are also videos on YouTube.  So get reading and viewing girl!
