- Short Bio
I am a 74 year old female diagnosed Jan 2020 with IPF. I am sure I have had IPF for awhile prior to diagnosis. I seem to manage my symptoms pretty well, did the 42 day bootcamp with Noah Greenspan. I found it very beneficial and continue to do the exercises. Currently taking Ofev 100mg twice a day as I was not able to tolerate the 150mg. I still have problems with the medication and find it hard to figure out whether I have diarrhea because of the meds or if it’s because of gluten as I also have celiac. I have been reading all the comments on this newsletter and have found it very helpful. I am not on oxygen yet and seem to be fairly stable.
