I don’t really know yet if the two are connected. Everything has been happening at he same time. I am putting off taking Esbriet till the major part of a bridge in my mouth is done. I’m sure this is not going to be easy on my stomach.

This is my first time posting on this site. This has been a wealth of knowledge that has been so appreciated. I have just recently had a final diagnoses of IPF. This thread hits home as I just had dental diagnoses that prompted dental surgery. I have not started meds as the dental issue has to be resolved first. The dental problem started the first of the year on a tooth with root canal. Nothing showed in exray and could not tell which tooth it was. They made me bit plate and assumed that would solve the issue. 6 months latter went back and exray showed a broken root down in the bone. It was either implant or pull and have a bridge. During this time my diagnosis was made. Now waiting for healing to go forward with bridge. Could not take a chance that I would feel nauseous will he is in my mouth.

I’m going into my third wk starting full dose Wed. Worried about full dose. Side effects of fatigue, indigestion, and dizziness. Curious how many others are being treated at University of Michigan Hospital in Ann Arbor, MI.
