Short Bio | Hi all My husband was recently diagnosed with IPF. I just need to be able to have people I can discuss this with so I know how to help. He is a heavy smoker although he says he has cut back. He is yet to see the lung specialist to do the lung tests etc. I have noticed he wakes in a pool of sweat as well. I guess it must go with having the IPF. Thanks for letting me join, I feel alone trying to help him. lorena |
