Short Bio |
Born 1940-Ohio
History of allergies and bronchitis, coughing since childhood in the north. Breathing difficulties developing for more than 10 years now. Related issues in my opinion may be from multiple surgeries over time including heart, back surgery, joints and also hips replaced. However more recent info on Gerd and IPF makes me wonder if more logical. Officially diagnosed 2+ years ago and scans and x-rays support 10 years of developing evidence. Some Rheumatoid Arthritis. Officially diagnosed as Idiopathic (means they just don’t know source).
Diagnosis: UTSW is Idiopathic IPF – Resistive type, also Cardio Pulmonary Hyper Tension
