Dear brother George,

I am 78 years old. I was diagnosed a little more than 2 1/2 years ago and being at end state because my lugs are so covered with fibrosis they said I had 1 to 3 years the most. So if this is true, I have less than six months left. I have been doing the Zinc idea, the green tea extract, and the berberine. Exercises and all to…

Yes, plenty of brands selling berberine online. Just google it and even eBay or Amazon

They sell the Airofit PRO 2.0 at their own website, and the cost is $349.00

-I also did check the airofit pro 2.0, but can’t find any place to buy.

Shalom!

Glad you re did your post. I was standing on my head trying to read it. Not for long because the coughing started.

Thanks for the info. Very interesting. My problem is getting tired fast and coughing a lot. I read that pineapple juice helps with the coughing. I buy it all the time, but just drink about a cup or two a day. However these…

I am a IPF at end state. My HH is a horrible thing to have. I can’t even bend over to pick something up or I will pass out. I ask about the surgery to repair HH, but due to my lungs condition they would not even think about it. Also I was told that they may repair your HH (which you can see a video of the procedure I think is on Youtube), but…

They claim is better thatn Ofev, but the price is about three times what Ofev cost which is already very expenssive.

I have two pulmonologists. One with the Veterans admin and the other with medicare. I always tell them what I am taking over the counter such as Zinc with resveratrol, NAD+; also taking one aspiring daily; taking EGCG . They tell me that is no problem but they do not fill in on these things. Perhaps is not science for them. I was diagnosed at…

I have two pulomonologists. One in VA and the other in Medicare. I told them both I was using 50 mg  of zinc with <em class=”TNT2l AStapd”>Resveratrol and NAD+, also one aspirin per day and 6 mg of EGCG. I told them they were OTC stuff. They said to continue if I wanted, but they did not seem to know what I was talking about. In other words,… Read more

I had it only once. I started to  cough and could not stop. Almost fainted which is a no no. I t alked to my therapist and said next time try getting my air with my nose and pump out the mouth. Continue this until stop and breathe is normal.

I am 77 and was diagnosed at end state two years ago and still here.

 

Awesome! you are very blessed your son helping you and being a professional is a double blessing. I do take a lot of herbs and whatever OTC that is mentioned that may help such as aspirin. I love to talk natural stuff  but don’t think is appropiate in this group. I will probably get kicked out. lol. But thinking about it, I may just start a… Read more

Looking around eBay, Amazon, wish, etc there is some stuff that is worth to investigate.

I am still doing the Zinc with the resveratrol an the NAD+ everyday without missing a day. Also taking 325 mg of aspirin that was mentioned it may work for IPF.

I don’t think I have gotten worst as of late. Also I am doing a IV of O2 once a month which… Read more

Why fly to China? Proibably 90% of our imports are from China. Find it, order it, and that is it. Just that it will take a little to get it unless they offer faster delivery. I am looking in to it myself also.

 

My problem is just the diarreah and loosing apetite. I just got switched to Esbriet. Can’t wait to see how it will work on me. But Ofev has taken 20% of my body wight.

 

 

I was diagnosed at end state about 18 months ago. The word by then was that I had 1 to 3 years left. I am now 77 years old, but I thought I was going to live well over 100 because being vegan and doing a lot of exercises. Not so, huh. At the beginnng I used to cry often when I was alone in my bedroom. My wife is not a helper what so ever.… Read more

I am also a veteran. They are treating me with Ofev. I heard about the Metformin, but not taking orally. I have been taking Metformin for type 2 for about 5 YERS OR MORE AND I am in end state with IPF. I did a research on the rumors that metformin could do the trick, but that was using it as a pump, but looks like either did not work or still… Read more

Magnesium 400 is fine, but the calcium 1000mm I would stay away from. Calcium tends to build up in the brain which causes dementia. I am doing 50 grams of chromium and 100 mg of NAD+ and then complement them with curcumin, DHA, Metformin, etc.

About a year and a half I was diagnosed with IPF. I was told I was at 1 to 3 years left, so I had this for a long time. The reason is Idiopathic is because there is no known causes.

Mike,78 is young, I will be 77 come January. I see you have read the original post. It interested me the part of the protein that transport the zinc to the necessary place. The Original post tells you how to increase this which is called surt1. I also saw Metformin helping which I am taking for my AC1. I ordered Gotu Kola and looking for a… Read more

I was diagnosed with IPF one and a half years ago and being at End-State. I could not accept the – years left and since there was no scientific cure, I went into the alternative meds field. I remember last year they came up with an article that duckweed may help, so I started three little pools where I grow it and take a tablespoon in a… Read more

I am a IPF patient at end state. I also have the hiatus hernia and is no fun. My gastro doc told me that doing surgery is extremely dangerous and specially with IPF at my state which may cause collapsing of on or both lungs.

omeprazol helps, but eats your bones. I do take one at least once a week when my reflux is heavy. But I also chew gum and… Read more

After 13 months they lowered mine from 150 to 100. I asked if I should finish the 150s I have left or the 100 in AM and 150s at nights, but was told just to put them in the fridge in case I get changed to 150s again but do not mix.
