I am sorry to hear about your concern but will be happy to assist you.
Pulmonary fibrosis is a serious, lifelong lung disease. It causes lung scarring (tissues scar and thicken over time), making it harder to breathe. Symptoms may come on quickly or take years to develop. No cure exists.
Let's connect over a call so that we can discuss your concern in details and make a suitable treatment plan for you.

Hello, thanks for the query.
Madam, I have seen the details given. However, there is no mention of the dosage (mg per tablet), and importantly tsh, t4 & t3 values. Without knowing the vital information it is difficult to comment. However, usually antithyroid treatment (particularly tablets either carbimazole or propylthiouracil) is given up to 24 months. Beyond that if the condition does not improve, then other treatments are considered like radio active iodine ablstion or surgery. So please...more

My father 87 year old have been hospitalized in new jersey usa for 43 days now with interstitial lung disease. Principal problem: pneumonia of left lower lobe due to infectious organism active problems: acute calculus cholecystitis interstitial lung disease (hcc) left bundle branch block acute on chronic respiratory failure with hypoxia (hcc) paroxysmal a-fib (hcc) currently on 4 l oxygen nasal cannula patient currently in steroid prednisone 30 mg and mepron and cefepime iv antibiotics. Recent x-ray shows worsening of lung condition all lobe impacted. Following this website I am giving him beryllium and silicea alongside the hospital’s alopathic treatment. I only go to hospital once in the evening, giving him 5 pallets of beryllium 30c and 3 pallets of silicea 30c one hour apart in the evening. I am not sure if I am giving him right amount. Requesting direction on the appropriate doses (also if any other meds and doses are suggested) for the acute stage of ild, again I am only able to go to the hospital once in the evening so only can give homeopathy medicine once a day.

Hello, thanks for the query.
I have seen the details mentioned. I understand that you have long standing hypothyroidism and taking 75 mcg of levothyroxine. However, there is no information on the tsh, t4 & t3 levels, so it is not known whether the dosage is adequate or not. Secondly taking ajowan powder, there is absolutely no issue if you are feeling fine about it. Only point to be remembered is to take levothyroxine tablet first on empty stomach and then after 1 hour the powder can (should...more

Hello, thanks for the query.
I have seen the details mentioned. Your thyroid profile test results are quite good. Looking at that there is no reason to repeat the same. As regards the stress and panic that you are feeling, has no relation with thyroid results. Plus the thyroid results are unlikely to change so rapidly. If need be please meet a counsellor or psychiatrist. Thanks.
