Guest guest Posted January 3, 2010 Report Share Posted January 3, 2010 Hello Everyone Looks like a lot of us had a good Christmas, That’s a good thing. I hope this year has good things in store for all of us. Well I had my appointment Dr Raghu at UWMC last week and when he said it was very serious and he was very concerned more so then my wife or I and that I was out of options. That was an eye opener. He put me on three meds and wait and see. I had dramatic increase in scaring between my last two CT’s. His nurse has called to check on me and said they will be in touch again next week. On the up side I am off work now and going to start to do some travailing. I think I have Margaritas waiting in AZ and I would like to see the largest ball of twine. Someone said I was tired two days ago ,yesterday and today I am retired. Walt 52 7/8 DX 06 IPF,UIP, NSIP Walt Courage doesn't always roar. Sometimes courage is the quiet voice at the end of the day saying, "I will try again tomorrow.†Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted January 3, 2010 Report Share Posted January 3, 2010 Walt, I'm sorry that your DX wasn't very good. Get out there and travel while you can. I have a campground membership and no RV. I'd probably be too chicken to use it if I did. I'd sure like to use that membership though.Beverley Joy,71, Birds and mold 1-09,Diabetes,Sjogren's,Fibromyalgia IdahoSubject: Hello, HelloTo: "Lung" <Breathe-Support >Date: Sunday, January 3, 2010, 1:56 PM Hello Everyone Looks like a lot of us had a good Christmas, That’s a good thing.
