Short Bio

I was diagnosed with IPF about 5 years ago. I am being treated at Temple Lung Center outside of Philadelphia. I have been on Ofev since my initial diagnosis. I have been fairly stable until recently. My symptoms have worsened in the last few weeks. I have started doing pulmonary exercises in hopes of increasing my lung capacity.
