So sorry, I don't know what fp/fpi are. Do you mean Pulmonary Fibrosis & Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis perhaps? Have you seen a GP?

Hopefully others will be along to advise or there is a helpline.

Ah, I just read your profile re post covid PF which I'm sorry to hear about.The helpline is 0300 222 5800 Mon to Fri 9,15 to 5pm.

In the meantime do get a gp appointment so you can get your lungs listened to. They can hear PF as well as crackles of infections and other lung ailments through the stethoscope. Sounds as though something isn't right. P

Hi Petri84.

Your symptoms of a "stinging throat" and Chest Pain can also be caused by GERD/ASTHMA or even nerve pain. You have PF so really you are better seeing your GP as it may need treatment whatever is causing your symptoms.

We can only say what it could be but, a doctor should be seen and would know what it was for sure,

Could be acid reflux. Whatever, see your GP.
