My doctor diagnosed me with pulmonary fibrosis. just checking - what's the best treatment.?

Controversial: There is no one definite treatment. One option is a combination of medicines to try to prevent inflammation and scar tissue build up. This is usually a steroid medicine, an immune suppressant called immuran and another agent called n-acetyl cysteine. Since this is not proven to work some patients may enroll in clinical studies and get experimental therapy. Still others may simply be monitored.

Which kind?: The treatment depends on the tissue diagnosis for this disease - if it is ipf there is no current treatment outside of a clinical trial (n-acetyl cysteine was found to be harmful). For other subtypes there are treatments available that have been demonstrated to be effective (except for asbestos or silca induced lung disease).
