Short Bio | I have had hypersensitivity pneumanitis for eight years. I am under The Brompton Hospital. I am on oxygen at night and ambulatory during the day. I take 10mg steroids with other drugs and Fostair and increase steroids when I have a flare up. I have been shielding for nine months. I also have Type 2 diabetes. I am supposed to have regular excercise but none is offered for home although I have askedif this could be arranged via video. I do keep active when I can. I think I cope but it is difficult being isolated for so long without an exit plan.
