A very warm welcome to you Thurston. I have a different condition to you but I hope someone will be along soon and that you get plenty of advice and support.

Hi Thurston,

I have had IPF for the past 5 years and if you have any questions I would be happy to answer them as much as I can.

Look after yourself, keep warm and avoid contact with people that might have colds and flu, you don't want a chest infection.

Kind Regards

Margot
