Guest guest Posted March 4, 2009 Report Share Posted March 4, 2009 Hi Kay, Welcome! Every time I see my pulmonologist he ask about heartburn, GURD, and I know there is some correlation but since I do not have it I don't know the exact percentage of PF patients who have it but I believe it is more than 50%. I believe it was Bruce that wrote about it recently, he does a lot of research. Good luck on your up coming tests.

You will find great encouragement on this board. I thought I would just check it once in awhile but find myself on it more and more - such good information and support is here! I was diagnosed about a year ago with ILD/IPF. I have GERD as well as do many here. I know of no solid evidence that there is a connection between the two but from what I am learning it could very well be the case. A new friend, Ken R.
