Guest guest Posted July 31, 2008 Report Share Posted July 31, 2008 I think I forgot to send this to Walt... (unknown) Hello all New and first post. So not sure what I am doing, I have read some of the postings and can say it’s nice to listen to what others have to say that “know” My family is supportive but I don’t think they truly understand. I was diagnose in 06 and had the bronchoscopy and then open biopsy They gave am a list of things that is wrong and IPF being one. The doctors want me to have a CT every 6 months to check progress. I worked in a chemical plant for 13 years and had Nemours exospheres and a few hospital trips to all kinds of chemicals, Chlorine, asbestos and Hydrochloric and sulfuric acid to name just a few. I read that these can be a cause but when I talked to the Doctors about this it’s like they don’t want to here it. I have not been back to the doctor since 06. It’s harder and harder working and to do the everyday things. I just DON”T want to go back to the doctor (dog and pony show) Is there a chart or something I could look at to see where I am at or what to expect? I want to distinguish between getting old and? Thanks for listing Walt "Dont be afraid of dying. Be afraid of the unlived life" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
