Bolton Pulmonary Fibrosis Support Group

Bolton Pulmonary Fibrosis Support Group was formed in 15th February 2018. The group supports people who live with Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis (IPF), along with their families, friends and carers. Pulmonary Fibrosis is a terminal lung disease, which has a life expectancy of 3-5 years from diagnosis. Idiopathic means unknown cause, as there is no unknown case there is, at present, no known cure. Lung transplantation is the only option open, but not everyone is suitable to undergo a transplant. The purpose of this channel is to provide as much as much knowledge and information to help improve the quality of life for each and every individual
