Hi there. Just came across your post. You mentioned pulmonary fibrosis. Is that a definite diagnosis or just a possibility? I have pulmonary fibrosis and was just at curious. Also what is the sniff test? I hope you are doing OK today. Kathleen

Hi Susie. Yes it is definite diagnosis. Fibrosis in lungs from radiation
therapy years ago. They used higher doses back then so now chances of
fibrosis are less common. Kathy

Sniff test is a real time fluoroscopy while watching expansion and contraction of the diaphragms
