Wow, that's a lot of blood! I'm not sure where I'm at as far as what rating I would get. I've just started using oxygen about a month ago. I'll probably start taking Ofev soon. I'm not looking forward to it. So many side effects!

I got used to the side effects of Ofev pretty quickly and could schedule things around them. As far as I know, you have to go through the battery of tests prior to them discussing your case and then getting listed and getting a rating. I was in a wheel chair (couldn't breathe enough even with oxygen to walk very far) before I started all of the testing.
