    Andrew (Randy) Hicks replied to the topic IPF-Related Medication Side Effects: Impact on Skin in the forum Young Adults Living with Pulmonary Fibrosis (40 & Under) 2 years, 9 months ago

    Good morning Charlene,

    Thanks for the reply.  My diet experimentation has gone well.  I have not had any problems as long as I eat normal non spicy foods and take the pills with peanut butter crackers or ramen noodles.

    I still itch but I am beginning to think it is just the weather changing here.  It is the time of year where we have the AC on…[Read more]

    Hi all.  I have been on 100 mg OFEV for a little over two months now.  Initially I had some diarrhea problems but changed my diet a bit to be able to handle things.  After my last liver test my doctor went ahead and upped me to 150 mg and put me on oxygen.  I have only been on the increased dosage for two days and I have been getting a little nau…[Read more]

    Thanks Mark,

    I always drink a lot of Gatorade, sometimes instead of water.  I guess if I cut down a little on the Gatorade and coffee, and drink more water I should be fine with the cramps.  I’ll keep the Pedialyte in mind if I get gastro problems again.

    Thanks Mark,

    So far I have not had anything bad like diarrhea after the first night.  I did have a little cramping in my hands but drinking more water took care of that.  I still take the OFEV with a banana, but only one now.   The banana’s were giving me too much gas ( a little embarrassing).  I am glad that I made it through the week with no m…[Read more]

    Thanks Mark, Bob and thanks for passing Bob’s post Charlene.  The first night went ok.  I did have to get up frequently for Diarrhea.  Before work I took some Imodium before leaving the house.  I was worried about how I was going to do at work, but I drank some orange juice and ate a banana, took my capsule (I am on 100 mg) and then ate ano…[Read more]
