    I am just beginning OFEV (4day) and so far no sied effects except for a little dizziness that passes. Is caffiene bad while on the med? I also suffer from chronic heart failure and persistent Afib with pacemaker a/v ablation. I have read so many different diet plans for both and is this going to just be a matter of what my body can tolerate or what it’s very confusing to me.

    New to OFEV(day4) 150mg 2x a day. Also on 4ml oxygen 24/7. Just a brief history before my question. Diagnosed with persistent Afib about 5 years ago that eventually resulted in pacemaker(3 lead) an a/v ablation. Original thought was this my cause for shortness of breath. Cardiovascular says no sent to pulmonologist after high res ct scan showed the lung disease along with slight emphysema in right lung. Great pulmonologist confirmed ild. My question is did the heart problem make the lung problem worse. Also have chronic heart failure. Still as active as I can be.
