Short Bio |
I was diagnosed with IPF about 18 months ago. I thought my allergies were acting up. At the time I was my Dad’s caregiver so went to the doctor just to make sure I didn’t have anything he might catch. My Dad also has IPF. My internist knew of my Dad’s situation so immediately ran tests. Fortunately I was diagnosed early, almost an accidental finding if you will.
