Several or none: Early stages may have no symptoms at all. As the fibrosis progresses, symptoms develop based on the structure involved. More commonly the superior vena cava is compressed and can lead to engorged neck veins, head and/or arm swelling and headaches. If the trachea or main bronchi are compressed there may be difficulty breathing. If the esophagus is compressed, then there is difficulty swallowing.

Question 8

my fibrinogen level is currently 143, should i be concerned?

Accepted Answer

Symptoms?: Is there a particular reason why you had your fibrinogen checked? Have you had a bleeding symptoms? Do you have any other "abnormal" labs measuring the coagulation cascade? For most labs, the low normal range for fibrinogen is 150, so you are just below that. Without knowing more about your particular clinical situation, your level of fibrinogen is not worrisome.

Question 9

what is fibrosing aleolitis? how can i treat it? is it dangerous?

Accepted Answer

Depends: If you have fibrosing alveolitis, you need to be under the care of a competent physician with some specialization in this area. I appreciate your asking and i believe the rest of the healthtap team does as well. But this is very serious business and if you have not yet gotten a clear account of what you have and how it might be treated, then demand to know the facts. Best wishes.
