Diagnosed with IPF 7+ yrs ago. Lung function was down to around 35%. Was fortune enough to get on the transplant list. Within 3weeks I got the call. Had my surgery 9/30/22 and so far so good. Was in the hospital 4 weeks 2 of which I don't remember. I lost 20+ lbs and most of my muscle. 2 weeks of PT and nurses care i was able to come home. Im 71 so im really grateful that I was able to get it done. While replacing the left lung they also did a LAD bypass. This was all done at Temple University Hospital in Philadelphia Great team

My father was diagnosed and fought hard for 3 years. He tried many different things! Did everything the doctors said! He died one week shy of 3 years! And when I see people say try this try that! I saw him do them and continue to decline! Listen to your doctor! Get a support group!

Listening to the doctors, regarding about IPF, is the worse thing u can do. Going to the hospital, for this disease, is the wrong thing to do. Doing your own research on the internet and coming across an all natural Institute, that treats lung diseases, with their all natural products, is the right thing to do.

I've been diagnosed as having this horrible lung disease but also have Bronchiectasis among other multiple chronic health conditions. I am turning 50 this August, never smoked in my life so I am really confused how I have this. Been an asthmatic all my life. I have good and not so great days having low moods I guess as a sinking feeling as most days I have no voice to speak about how I feel being deprived of oxygen means I suffer from having Hemiplegic migraine attacks. Also diagnosed with a couple of autoimmune diseases and one Autosomal disease. I am waiting to see a pulmonary Specialist to help me manage this array of conditions. My quality of life is slowly slipping away but I am going to try to beat this for me and my family.

The worst thing to fear is a life not lived to the absolute fullest you can manage to live.
I was diagnosed with IPF in 2007. I was desperate and eventually phoned Professor Peter Molan at Waikato University in New Zealand, who is a world authority in Manuka honey. I thought that as this honey can repair external wounds, it would help internally. He sent me some high quality Manuka honey and directed me to use it through a nebulizer. Within 2 months my coughing had reduced by 98% and within 6 months the disease was no longer progressing. I still suffer from IPF, but 15 years later, I am still here and my fibrosis is not progressing.

The main thing about this disease is to never give up hope. Yes they say it terminal between 3 & 5 years from diagnoses to grave or transplant. Im 6 years since being diagnosed. They have to tell you the worst possible scenario so one understands how bad this disease really is. Everyone's out come is different and also the length of quality life after diagnosed to transplant. Keys to living longer are. 1. Keep a positive as possible mind set. 2. Keep yourself in as good physical condition as possible. The better shape one can stay in the better off transplant surgery will go. 3. Do what your Doctors say 100% 4. Enjoy life the best you can. Enjoy Family and Friends. 5. Don't feel sorry for yourself. Don't dwell on the negative. I know all this is easier said then done and I couldn't agree more because Iv been going through it for the past 6+ years. The better state of mind and health will make a way better out come.

In the mid 1980’s Dad would come home from golf and say how exhaausted he was. Dad had been a brilliant golfer all his life and was only in his very early 50’s back then. When I am able I am going to get involved in the Australian Lung Disease Foundation. I want to help educate people about IPF.

Good on you! I live in Adelaide. Got P.Fibrosis. I am devastated! It is mild but it scares the crap out of me at 68 years! Support groups are important. I applaud you.

Try boiling shredded fresh ginger+ 5 crushed cardamom pods + 2 black pepper+ half a cinnamon + 2 clove . You can change the portions according to taste. Drink as much as he can. Get him to gargle regularly with salted water to clear the mucous. Search the net for yogic breathing. No milk no dairy products. Eat healthy ..exercise..walk...accept

I have to use albuterol to calm my coughing episodes. Getting a device called a spacer from my pharmacist seems to help the meds get into my lungs better. I do not think cough suppressants are a good idea, our lungs need to cough to clean themselves since pneumonia is common. Tylenol helps with the aches from coughing so much also. Just diagnosed so still working things out myself. If he had barrette's esophagus (assuming that's what you mean) he may be breathing in stomach contents into his lungs. I have GERD, and I'm doing this, so it is also important to seek help from a gastroenterologist who can get the reflux better controlled.

I’m on oxygen a few months now. My mom passed from IPF at 80. I was originally diagnosed with IPF at 68. Few months later re-diagnosed with systemic scleroderma with ILD. I’m now 75. I have a productive cough most of the day. Strange coincidence.

Was diagnosed with IPF a year and half ago. I am on oxygen 24/7 I pray God every day that after everything l have been through over my younger years with Heart problems, Breast cancer, stroke, that l can still fight and get through this. I am alone with no family support and l tell God l can do this with HIM. He is where l get my strength. I have many family members but all work and busy, which l understand. I cry, and just breathe. I never dreamed that I would end up like this... Prayers for all who have been diagnosed with this illness. ❤🙏🙏❤️🩹
