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
