No, never heard of it but I'm sure you'll find plenty of information on the internet :)

Sorry this is the first I have heard of it. I have been looking and there is a little on the Internet. It does seem very related to autoimmune diseases such as SLE and myositis but I'm feeling a bit foggy as usual and it was hard to digest the info. X

I have shrinking lung / disappearing lung disease which is scaring of the lungs caused in my case by many chest infections

visiting GP and being told my chest was ( as clear as a bell) the damage had been done by the time I was found to have SLE it car'nt be reversed .
