| Short Bio | I was diagnosed with COPD & PULMONARY FIBROSIS yesterday by my PCP. I am in shock right now, as I’m sure everyone here is/was at one time. I’ve already scheduled an appointment with a Pulmonologist. I was also diagnosed with a Mitral Valve Prolapse 30+ years ago, IBS, a Herniated Esophagus and shortness of breath. I now know, why I’ve been having an excess of mucus, being all related to Pulmonary Fibrosis, who would have ever thought. I’ve started taking a regimen of Omeprazole to ease the discomfort of my Herniated Esophagus. |
