A I.Pulmonary Fibrosis Newbie

[Guest guest]

Hello Ladies and Gents.....

I'm Mike Dailing, of Carlsbad, California... and I'm presuming (not assuming) I'm among fellow patients... for 'incurable' Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis.

I don't know much... other than the "Shock of my life" one week ago was when My Veterans Administration Doctor told me "you have 24 months" to live. All that was done off of ONE... yes (1) ONE CT Scan ! Without any other testing.

Anyways.. I'm glad to be amongst the best here.. and hope I can share and receive as well other's opinions ideas thoughts.. AS FOR ME.. I'm NOT going to let this Sit! Not the Diagnosis.. NOR the prognosis.. NO WAY.

That said.. I'll need to have a Lotta input from my fellow Pulmonary patients.. as well as providing the information I have.

You know, I don't know if this can be beat. I have strong Ideas.. that I can disprove the doctors statements... In fact, prolong my life.. WHATEVER the True Diagnosis is.

So, I'm hoping to share and participate the best way I can with my Fellow group "Breath-Support" partners.... I'm IN for the LONG Haul !

Thanks,

Mike Dailing
