Short Bio | I am 74 years old. I was diagnosed with Pulmonary Fibrosis about 2 to 2 1/2 years ago in mid 2017, I think. At my last check up (about a month ago) I had lost a liter of lung capacity, although I started out with a 120% of my peers. I am now starting to get concerned. I am going to syart on OFEV in January. I am curious about the experiences/sideeffects which others have experienced with OFEV. Thanks for any insights. Jack |
