Hi my name is Frank Crowhurst. I am now 85 but back about 5 years ago I was diagnosed with Pulmonary Fibrosis. I had no idea what this was so I went to Google and read the following. Pulmonary fibrosis is a disease marked by scarring in the lungs. Tissue deep in the lungs becomes thick, stiff and scarred. The scarring is called fibrosis. As the lung tissue becomes scarred, it interferes with a person's ability to breathe. In some cases, the cause of pulmonary fibrosis can be found. But most cases of pulmonary fibrosis have no known cause. These cases are called idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis. Pulmonary fibrosis can develop slowly or quickly. There is no cure. Many people with the disease live only about three to five years after diagnosis. Current treatments for pulmonary fibrosis cannot remove scarring that has already occurred. There are a number of new treatments being studied for pulmonary fibrosis. There are many resources available to people living with pulmonary fibrosis and their loved ones After reading this I was frightened. I had always worried about cancer and then this, right out of the blue.. I quit a lot of organizations and programs that I was involved in and slowed down my life. I thought I had better get things in order. A marvelous thing had just happened. I had been introduced to a product called Ambrotose Complex that had been developed by a group of doctors in Texas. An now owned by Mannatech. Read More |
