Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis. It is rare and progressive and serious. It's a disease of the respiratory system characterized by thickening and stiffening of lung tissue. That is what my search engine had to say about it, but you can't believe everything you read on the internet. Your best bet is to ask your doctor @A MyCOPDTeam Member

Thanks much have a Good day

The "I" means that the doctors don't have a clue what is causing the disease or condition. Thank you Bing! Bing is my go to place when I want to know something, but again, you can't always believe what the internet says @A MyCOPDTeam Member. Have a super day!

The ( I ) stands for Idiopathic - "from or without a known cause":

Few can make that claim. I had a CT scan tech explain it to me before an exam once, but it is not recorded in my medical record - yet. The X-rays show the signs are there though.
be Well.

IPF and IVF are two entirely different things @A MyCOPDTeam Member. lol I bet you know that though. The only good news I have is that it is finally warming up here in Wisconsin; at least this week it is; who knows what next week will bring.
Another bit of good news is that I'm sure glad I don't live in Texas or Oklahoma where they have wildfires raging out of control. SO much damage and now so many more people without homes or vehicles or anything other than the clothes on their backs.
Another bit of good news is that I am still feeling good and still walking every day. Will get my workout today doing my grocery shopping because I need a lot of stuff. That's what I get for being on Face Book and seeing all these fantastic foods the people make and feel compelled to share on Face Book. lol It all looks so good.
Great to hear from you Kish Tura and now it's your turn to tell me something good.😀Have a wonderful day! Hugs, Chris
