Guest guest Posted December 31, 2008 Report Posted December 31, 2008 Hi My name is Eileen. I was diagnosed w IPF/UIP in May 2007. I have actually been doing very well till this Thanksgiving. I got the flu and my oxygen dropped. The doctor put me on 02 temporarily saying he thought I would go back up but I have not. Monday he told me I have to face the possibility my fibrosis has worsened and I will need to stay on 02. I happen to be off from work this week so I am trying to take it easy but I am scared. I am so tired. How am I going to keep working? If I don't work we will lose our house. Not a good market to have to sell now. I am just scared and need someone who knows what it is like to talk to.
