Welcome to this group. Cute dog. So you have an interstitial lung disease. Do you know what caused it? Or did it just happen? Dukes is a slightly familiar name as I belong to other groups with members who are predominantly from US. I should like to know a little more of your story if you felt like telling it. All the best

Thanks everyone! Yea that is Wueenie, we adopted her from a rescue. I appreciate all the warm welcomes. I have a lot to learn about my diagnosis and hopefully after June 21 at Duke, I’ll know more.

Just seen your post from a year ago Eddieg123. I was also diagnosed with pulmonary fibrosis UIP type and it's still a mystery to me nobody seems to be able to explain it even my nurse, hope your keeping well x
