Guest guest Posted May 26, 2008 Report Share Posted May 26, 2008 Alana, You will love Dr. . His nurse, Tamra, is his wife. I email them if I have any concerns and they always promptly reply. I am in the STEP Trial, which just started. (Sidenafil Trial of Exercise Performance). I don't know if I am on placebo or the drug. I have had some side effects, not severe of course. Dr. will want to do PFTs, HRCT (scan) and probably some blood tests, including an ABG (blood gas). There are other ongoing drug trials and maybe you could qualify for one. I feel, at this time, that a drug trial is probably best for me. You can click on the links on this site and find much information about IPF. Take care and have a good day! Toodles!
