I live in south West Scotland and was diagnosed with IPF in 2008. since then I have constant attention from G.P. and my respiratory nurse. when I feel bad my nurse will call two or three times a week and consults with my G.P. who will also call. I can only praise the support and attention that I receive from everybody
Bilko
That is wonderful Bilko, I am so pleased you are being well cared for. It is always good to hear some positive stories about the NHS. Xris
Morning Bilko, So glad to hear you are getting all the support you deserve, My darling husband suffered with IPF for just over 5 Years, so I know how difficult life can be, Like you we had wonderful support from all Doctor,Hospice and the District Nurses were magnificent. Do trust you are not suffering power cuts due to the dreadful weather you have been having, Always such a worry if you are using Concentrators for your oxygen, Hope you are as comfortable as is possible, Very best wishes,Bulpit
It's good to show the good aspects of the NHS. I am very glad you have this good care too. Lovely, Mic
That's great news Bilko, i too seem to have finally got a good support system going at last. It makes you feel so much more at ease with the situation!!! Love Kin Xx
Palliative care, does it still exist?
The light at the end of the tunnel
New here but need help.
Palliative care - questions to ask
Social care - what's your experience?
