    Sandra Koenig replied to the topic Different Types of Fatigue for Patients with PF. in the forum Join the Discussion: Welcome to all PF/IPF Patients 3 years ago

    So happy you are touching on this topic. Seems like the start of Spring that everything has changed for me. The coughing jags are back and the extreme fatigue has set in.

    Sandra Koenig replied to the topic The Importance of Relationships While Living With a Chronic Illness in the forum Join the Discussion: Welcome to all PF/IPF Patients 3 years, 11 months ago

    There are days when you want to completely shut down. My family and friends see me smiling, laughing, doing everyday normal things, and I look very well on the outside. On the days that the coughing jags are too much, I get down. There is no handbook for living with IPF nor is there one for our families and caregivers. You don’t want to burden y…[Read more]
