Guest guest Posted January 27, 2009 Report Share Posted January 27, 2009 I was diagnosed with IPF in March 2005. I'm unable to do things without my oxygen. When I try without the oxygen, it's difficult and I cough uncontrollably. So the doctor put me on 3 liters 24/7. I take a portable tank with me when I go out. The cough is very annoying. There are times that I'm unable to speak because I'm unable to breath and the coughing. When I cough, I have a burning sensation in the back of my throat. The pain goes into the base of my neck (below my adam's apple). I'm going to my PCP next week to discuss this. Does anyone else have this type of problem? Thanks for your thoughts.
