Community Member Member I really do encourage anyone with IPF to keep up a fitness regime, I had gone to pulmonary rehab classes for a number of years, and always try to walk, even if its indoors in a mall/shopping Centre, I am very involved with ILFA (irish lung Fibrosis Association) on the ilfa website there is a pulmonary exercise class designed for IPF, we have just made a dvd on yoga for the same purpose, which will be able to download soon, I think its my positive attitude and determination to stay well Community Member Member Hi Pamela, Thanks for sharing I think your advice and encouragement of keeping up with fitness (as much as possible) is important for IPF patients
