    Carol Dyck replied to the topic Wrestling with the End Stage of Pulmonary Fibrosis in the forum Living with Pulmonary Fibrosis: 50+ 1 year, 3 months ago

    I read with great interest the previous writings here and really can’t add too much to what has already been said.  In 2014 I was having an x-ray done in preparation for a shoulder replacement, when my doctor mentioned the ‘scaring’ in my lungs.  At that time I didn’t think I had any breathing problems.

    Since then of course, it has been getting p…[Read more]

    Carol Dyck replied to the topic Ofev Users can Safely take Ofev on a Long Term Basis in the forum Ofev (Nintedanib) 2 years, 9 months ago

    Hello,

    I have been taking OFEV 150mg for 9 months now and have had blood test done monthly to monitor liver enzymes elevation .  There has been a ‘decrease’ in the progression of the disease since taking OFEV.  The only side effect that I seem to get from this drug is slight nausea around noon hour.  It lasts for about an hour, then di…[Read more]

    Carol Dyck replied to the topic Finding Some Good Amidst the COVID-19 Crisis in the forum Join the Discussion: Welcome to all PF/IPF Patients 3 years, 2 months ago

    What beautiful words you wrote and what inspiration it gives everyone to think about how the environment is “resting” for a short time during this horrid pandemic.  I read that birds were heard singing and chirping in cities in China where they haven’t been heard for years.  Yes, I truly believe ‘good’ will come from this and hopefully the world w…[Read more]

    Carol Dyck replied to the topic Starting Ofev in the forum Ofev (Nintedanib) 3 years, 4 months ago

    Hello:

    My name is Carol Dyck and live in Mississauga (outside of Toronto).  I’m 83 and was diagnosed with IPF in 2014, but in April 2019 I started using oxygen for ‘walking’.  Ofev is the only drug I take, so I guess that’s a “plus”.  However, I’m only on my fifth day of taking 150 mg. twice a day, and so far have had no side effects.  After rea…[Read more]

    Hello Mark,
    Thank you so much for you Welcome. I am fairly new to this disease, although I was diagnosed in 2014, and did not have to go on oxygen for walking until a year ago. I am sure the forum will be of great help to me once I am comfortable finding my way around the site.
    Thanks again.
    Carol
