Pulmonary fibrosis is one of my least favorite diseases. I have hated it ever since I met it up close and personal when I used to work as a pulmonary PA, and now I see it quite often in Palliative as well because it’s so often takes peoples lives. This is a tough one because essentially the body is creating inflammation and scar tissue to the point that oxygen no longer works, and there is no fix for it. #pulmonary #pulmonaryfibrosis #lungs #lungdisease #endoflife #palliativecare #hospice #oxygen #themoreyouknow #medicalknowledge
