Lots of sneezing, too. Wouldn’t you know it — doctor is out today. Supposed to call tomorrow. Meanwhile, second day of previous six pills a day dosage is still working fairly well. Is it possible that Hubbs will never be able to go up to the maintenance nine doses without experiencing extreme side effects? I mean, you can’t just go around with a bloody nose and/or runny nose and/or constant tummy tension and not wanting to eat — right?

That’s right. My husband had all the side effects, so he decided of quality time left instead of quantity. He tried both available medications with the same result. Hopefully, things will go better for your husband. My husband felt like his pulmonary fibrosis was already too far along before he was placed on the meds.
