Guest guest Posted January 29, 2010 Report Share Posted January 29, 2010 karen sorry to hear about your lower pft's hope it is because of the uti is ravatio used instead of cellcept Pink Joyce R (IPF 3/06) IFA 5/09 Pennsylvania Donate Life Listed 1/09 Inactive 4/09 www.transplantfund.org--- Subject: PFTTo: Breathe-Support Date: Friday, January 29, 2010, 1:24 PM I had my pft Wed and it was way lower than last time. I am hoping the UTI that is plaguing me is the reason.I am feeling better today and hope the antibiotic is working otherwise a trip to the Big House for massive doses. I am waiting for the results of the ct scan to see if the cellcept has slowed down my honeycombing. The next drug is ravatio. I hope everyone has a great weekend...

Guest guest Posted January 29, 2010 Report Share Posted January 29, 2010 Certainly any infection could depress your PFT's. PFT's are subject to wide variations based on situations. Now, I'm confused by your statement of hoping the cellcept is working and the next drug being Revatio since they are completely different medications to treat very different conditions. Have you been diagnosed with pulmonary hypertension? Thats what the Revatio is for. > > I had my pft Wed and it was way lower than last time.
