Biography

I was diagnosed with IPF March of 2018. I spent 6 days in the hospital recovering from having biopsies removed. It didn’t seem so bad at first due to being on a fentanyl epidural for 5 days. Not so much fun after that. I am married without children. I retired after 26 years as a  firefighter. I am staying as active as I can. I live within walking distance of a park that offers mile of trails. I try to use them as often as I can. I started Ofev last April. Some of the side effects have been a challenge.  I appreciate a lot of the info I see and read on this forum.
