your boyfriend and I are similar

[Guest guest]

Sorry about your boyfriend. I was diagnosed with IPF in Feb 2005 and

the doctors are miffed as to how I came down with it. I was doing

triathlons thru my 55th birthday and I retired from the sport. I have

always been very athletic and took great pride in my fitness. Since

that time I maintained a very high level of fitness until one day I

was short winded in the gym. After the second occurrence I made an

appointment and I was dianosed with IPF.

Been on meds since and they are very tough (side effects) but you have

to do what you have to do. I can tell you this, it will bring you

closer to God and those things which are really important in life. I

wish you both well.

Jim
