Short Bio | Firstly I hope you’ll excuse my bad English, I can read well but I have a lot of difficulties in writing. However with the help of Google translator I hope to make myself understood. I’m Portuguese, 63 yo, retired Civil Engineer, living in Lisbon, Portugal. PF, (possibly idiopathic) diagnosed in December 2021. For 45 years, I smoked almost 2 packs a day. I had mild Covid-19 in November 2021 and following the RX I did to evaluate any sequelae of the disease, Fibrosis and Emphysema were detected. I am still looking for a doctor in Portugal who is really an expert in this disease. I became aware of this Site and I am really enjoying reading the experiences of its participants.
