Short Bio |
I am now 81, I was diagnosed with I.P.F. in 2014, at that time I lived in Malta and was told I had 2 to 5 years, I was originally treated with Oxygen @ 3 lit, at home 2 hours a day. I was stable and came back to the UK in 2017, 1 year ago I noticed I was getting out of breath more, after tests and scans it has progressed, and now I need oxygen when I go out walking to the shops at 2L, and have been referred to this main center for heart and lungs at Wythenshawe Hospital, for assessment and other treatments
